Workshop Structure
The purity of mark-making
Discover the connection between the marks you make and self-expression. Making drawings using a variety of materials gives students the opportunity to explore and experiment with familiar and unusual materials and techniques.
Feeding the imagination
Making expressive abstract drawings requires a wealth of inspiration to ensure a continual replenishment of ideas so drawings continue to evolve, change, and develop. Students learn techniques that enables them to find new mark-making ideas from the world around them.
Simplifying ideas
Distilling mark-making ideas to their essence is central to creating strong visually clear images. Less is often more, and students learn techniques that enable them to distil ideas to their central concept to create increasingly dynamic drawings.
Beyond the boundaries
Embracing spontaneity and freedom of expression requires setting boundaries. Students will work on a variety of mini projects with limitations, that will set their imaginations free.
By the end of the course…
Students will leave inspired and excited about the possibilities of pure mark-making and self-expression, understanding it can be applied to all styles of drawing from realistic to abstract.
