Painterly Drawing in Charcoal
Class | Available
In this class we will be focusing on a 'painterly' application of the charcoal medium using tone rather than line to lay in the figure. Emphasis will be placed on shape, value, and edge to create an 'atmospheric' representation of the model. Instructor demonstrations and critiques are routine. Great for students of all levels.
