Come join Kath Macaulay for five class sessions – two hours each with 15 minutes extra for social input – to get a refresher on how to keep your sketching skills sharp and ready to go! These five sessions are structured thusly:
- Review use of equipment, basic first exercise, color and focal point
- Emphasis on perspective of contrast, color and focal point
- Picking focal point from existing painting
- Emphasis on editing, focal point and your individual relation to image
- Running water, clouds, trees
- Ways to do these problematic subjects
- Sketching with dilute paint and use of darks
- From John Singer Sargent, a whole new way to work
- Travel Journaling
- Materials to use and embellishments
After Day Two there may be changes depending on what students want. They will be given choices from where they seek help or inspiration. Discussion will center on continuing to sketch for life. These classes are spaced with 2 days between sessions to allow time for homework. Class recordings will be available for 2 weeks for review. The microphone will be opened 15 minutes early each day. Early arrivals are welcome. We will also have time for group discussions wherein students may ask questions of the instructor. Have fun sketching!
