Drawing – Beginning
Ages 16 and up. The definition of the word “drawing” is “the act of making marks on a picture plane.” So if you can write your name, you can draw. Students will learn various drawing techniques such as contour, positive/negative space and value. These techniques will be explored while experimenting with various drawing materials, such as pencils, sharpies, charcoal, ink and conte. Students will draw natural and man-made objects and learn to break down complicated subjects into basic shapes. We will explore a variety of exercises and reference master drawings. This course provides a good foundation for all art classes. Supply list is provided upon registration. Instructor: Susan Soper. Six sessions.

 In February, Pullen Arts Center was proud to bring in
visiting artist A. Blair Clemo for a Saturday workshop titled A Balance of Ornament
and Utility. While the workshop was fabulous, it’s even more exciting for us to share some of our student works inspired by Clemo’s techniques but with their own twist.
