Tutor: Heather Parry-Williams / Event Organiser: Clare Harvey COURSE AIMS: This course will allow you to develop your creative art and design skills by experimenting with a range of media, materials, and techniques to produce unique and personalised artwork. You’ll be able to complete a range of studies and experiments and complete the final pieces over the 10-week course. We aim to encourage observational skills, creative thinking and confidence when creating artwork. Every session will have group demonstrations and one-to-one tutoring alongside the opportunity to cooperate, discuss and share ideas with a group of like-minded fellow students. COURSE OVERVIEW THEME: “WATER” Our theme will be developed in many exciting directions. From the observational study of ripples and waves on the surface water to delving into the forms and shapes of plants and fish and studying the wonderful variety of colours, patterns, and textures in sea life. There is so much scope from a single starting point… WEEKS 1-3: (Observational Drawings of Water and Marine Life) We’ll spend the first three weeks drawing our initial studies from photos and props. Materials: Sketchbook pencils (a range of pencils or a 2B) Ruler and eraser Charcoal Fine liner/Biro pens Soft Pastels and/or Oil Pastels Coloured pencils WEEKS 4-5: (Paintings of Texture, Pattern and Colour in Marine Life) Using experimental watercolour and pen-and-wash techniques, we’ll examine more closely the colours and effects seen in water and the shapes, details, and textures seen on the surfaces of shells and fish. Materials: Sketchbook and watercolour paper Pencils and eraser Watercolours Brushes Fine Liner/Biro pens Masking Fluid Masking tape Rock salt Isopropyl alcohol WEEK 6: (Wire Drawing) Using thin copper wire to create a fluid, 3D line drawing based on previous studies. Materials: Copper wire Pliers WEEKS 7-8: (Mono-Printing) Focusing on pattern and shape, we’ll create a series of mono-prints influenced by Japanese woodcuts. Materials: Sketchbook and watercolour paper Pencils and eraser Printing blocks (polystyrene) Printing Ink (black) Rollers (“brayers”) WEEKS 9-10: (Developing Ideas and Final Pieces) Based on your work over the previous 8 weeks, we’ll use these 2 sessions to complete a final piece of unique artwork using your preferred materials and style. Please note: Although all materials will be provided during the sessions, you may wish to bring your own sketchbook and some drawing materials. Heather Parry-Williams / Clare Harvey |
