A SKETCHY
APPROACH TO ART
A bad drawing rarely makes a good
painting and how many times have you seen a nicely painted work that’s
been ruined by the poor quality of the original drawing??? So finally,
at the request of many students, watercolour teacher Fiona Pruden has
been persuaded to start up a new set of classes for 2006. ‘Sketch it
out’ is designed specifically to help artists improve the quality of
their drawing and understand better the value of using good sketches in
their work.
Working through from the basics
of understanding the range of uses of all your drawing materials the
course builds-up over the weeks to include working with charcoal, chalk
and coloured pencils. Students will be encouraged to start keeping their
own sketchbooks and build-up an archive of reference material that they
can use as their personal resource in the future. Classes will run every
Tuesday afternoon from 12.30pm to 3.00pm at the Willow Watercolours
studio in the Danesbury Park area of Welwyn village, at a cost of £12.50
per class.
