SKETCHBOOK TO CANVAS.

LOCATIONS AND PORTRAITS

Mondays 10am-4pm.

Summer Term: 27th April - 29th June 
​including 'Monday Specials'
This exciting course will guide students from the sketchbook study to the finished canvas. Working with models both on location and in the studio, students will explore different themes and develop their own approaches to composing figurative paintings.  Beginning with drawing on location, students will gather information using a variety of drawing media : charcoal, ink, pencil/oil bar oil pastels and collage - at each location a particular technique will be demonstrated. In the studio students will learn how to develop them into painted compositions using oils, acrylics, or chalk pastels. 

A recent location was the Union Canal at Lochrin Basin. Our model held 30 minute 'canal worker' poses and the students were introduced to working in ink and wash - first with line and then with tonal starts.
