TECHNIQUES IN CHARCOAL - Ages 16+
Come explore charcoal! Sessions include warm-up exercise geared to all levels of experience. We talk about how to use and maintain charcoal tools as we study composition, proportion, edge control, space, line, tonal values, and mark making. In the studio we work from life with setups and photocopies of black-and-white subject matter. I encourage everyone to bring in personal source imagery as a way to fuel creative ideas.
