Participant Background Info
The morning session will focus on line drawing as the base of the sketch. We will start by considering the selection of a point of view and establishing a basic structure for a drawing. The afternoon session will build on the morning’s work and add value and color to capture the quality of light, enhance the sense of spatial depth and accent the focal point of your sketch.
Student Learning Goals:
Students will be introduced to the following concepts:
The Line:
1. How to select a point of view: Detail, Fragment, Building, Setting
2. How to compose the sketch: Where to start, how to proceed, what to include
3. How to create spatial depth in your drawing: Visual cues to create the sense of near and far
Moving to Color:
1. Spatial Depth and Value: Seeing and using tonal values to create depth and capture quality of light
2. Strategies to applying color and tone to create focus in your sketch
3. Limiting your palette of color
