About the event
Join us for an immersive art workshop with artist, Sherry Carlson, where you'll learn to create expressive drawings as the foundation for stunning watercolor paintings. This workshop focuses on two essential artistic concepts: gestural drawing and composition.
Gestural Drawing: Start by mastering the art of gestural drawing, capturing the essence and movement of your subjects with loose, expressive lines. This technique will help you understand the flow and energy of your subject, setting a dynamic base for your artwork.
Composition: Next, delve into the principles of composition, learning how to arrange elements within your drawing to create a balanced and engaging piece. You'll explore techniques such as the rule of thirds, leading lines, and focal points to guide the viewer's eye through your work.
