For ages 13 to 18 years
An ongoing term art class
Bookings now open for Term 1 2021
Term 1 2021 Theme: Contemporary Perceptions in Nature
The overall aim of this class is to encourage students to extend their art practice.
Exploring Nature through art can take many visual forms, from photorealism to abstraction. This term we aim to give you some starting points for interpreting explorations of nature through painting and drawing. Reference will be made to contemporary artists who work with this genre. A number of techniques will be explored including looking at nature with an emphasis on patterning and compositional approaches of the micro and macro.
Embracing the limitations of the Zoom platform we will be working mainly (but not exclusively) from photos. Some supplied images will be supplied and you will be encouraged to work from your own reference sources.
Activities and discussions are aimed at the extension of concepts and techniques. While online, participants work on their artwork, join in the discussion, and have the chance of one-on-one discussions with the tutor about the progress of their work.
Materials: A list of materials is included in the “Materials, Setup and safety” PDF which can be downloaded from the booking site.
When
Thursdays 6:30 pm – 8:00 pm
