Drawing and Painting Classes Noosa

Di and Lorey engrossed in  their painting class

Drawing as part of our day classes has  continued on from last term and has been very popular,
Last term we looked at contour and gesture drawing, this term we got down to the basic elements of drawing, 
Straight and curved lines and the relationships between them, horizontal, verticals , diagonals, curves, circles and spheres. This laid the groundwork for drawing an object realisticly  using the pencil to judge size and proportion

Set up for still life
In our last lesson tone was introduced using hatching  and  cross hatching to  add tone to a group of objects

First painting class of the year, Noosa Queensland, Australia

The first class of the year is always exciting meeting new faces and welcoming back familiar faces.

Our new class

Our class is pretty small with only 6, room for one or two more. Our two newcomers shared their love of painting and creativity as well as their desire to gain confidence and new skills. To start the year I did a questionaire to determine what everyone wanted out of the class and it was good that everyone was keen to  improve their skills to paint coastal scenes in impressionistic and abstract ways. Drawing was considered a desirable skill , so I plan on having  it incorporated into the class on a regular basis.
