Crash Course in Charcoal

from $51.00

Join instructor Matthew Grimmer for a 2-week crash course in charcoal drawing. Students will learn the basics of building up a drawing using the properties unique to the medium. Students will learn to draw from life using a still-life setup by the instructor. In the first week, we focus on building loosely and identifying shapes and measurements early on, to establish a strong base for the second week. Here, we will finish our drawing by learning techniques such as line weight, shading, and creating an illusion of depth. This workshop is ideal for anyone looking to explore a new medium or learn to draw from life. 

This 2-week workshop will be held from 1-3:30 pm on Saturday, November 1 & 8 in the Idonea Hersee Classroom at Art Reach, 111 E. Broadway in Mount Pleasant

Recommended age: 14 and up
