In Part 1, learn how to loosen up with today's offering of drawing tools, create gestural marks, and add rhythm and movement to your artwork.In This Workshop:You may not realize it, but you draw all the time. When you sign your name, when you draw a map, cross something out, or doodle on scrap paper. Drawing is a powerful and wonderful language, capable of expressing things not easily conveyed in other mediums.Drawing can also be very expressive: communicating the intangible and invisible. It is one of the most accessible and portable activities you can undertake. The Modernism movement expanded the definition of what drawing can be and do; freeing it from being equated to only realistic renderings.In this workshop series, we will produce a broad range of expressive and gestural drawings that will be personal and meaningful. We will explore and experiment with materials beyond the familiar pencil and eraser duo. We will learn to loosen up, trust ourselves, and expand on what we know we can do to create rich, satisfying abstract drawings.What we cover in Part 1:- getting loose- using today's offering of drawing materials- creating gestural marks- adding rhythm and movement to your artStudents will walk away with several studies on large-format paper that are born from exercises and prompts led by the instructor. You will end up with the know-how for making and adding these type of marks into your own paintings at home.Supply List for Students to Bring:This is a studio class and students will be using their supplies on the first week.1 Roll of  (order one week ahead—local stores do not carry this item; also available on Amazon but check to be sure it's Series 400)1 Graphite No.2 pencil1 Charcoal stick, jumbo size (Cretacolor Chunky Charcoal or Derwent XL Charcoal are great choices)1 ArtGraf water soluble carbon square, black (can be found at Blick, Artist &amp; Craftsman, or Amazon)1 Ink, black (any kind: india, calligraphy, sumi, etc.)1 White vinyl eraser1 Chip brush, 2" widthGesso1 Large round brush (Blick Mega or Escoda brands are great choices)2 , found in drawing section for using with drawing boards (can be found at Michael's, Blick, Artist &amp; Craftsman, or Amazon)​Saturday Workshop Info:Sat, April 18th from 11:00am-2:00pmInstructor: Kristen GuestCost $115Max 12 studentsLevel 2 (intermediate)Age level: adult (18 &amp; up)
