Drawing Classes with Anton Chapman
From Drawing to Painting : All day class
In the morning session you will compose in pencil; explore and concentrate on drawing in preparation for the afternoon’s painting. Drawing will include consideration of composition, colour and mood. Drawings will be worked from the studio still life material, photographs and pictures amongst other things. Materials required: pencils, charcoal and pastel.
In the afternoon develop your morning’s drawing into a painting. This may be on prepared canvas, board or paper. Other materials required: brushes, acrylics, gouache, oil etc.
Drawing Practice
These classes will introduce you to the fundamentals of drawing practice. Learn the importance of both gestural and sustained drawing as part of your development. Learn how to draw tonally and how to draw using line alone. Finally learn how to compose and critique your work.
Drawing from the Figure
Take the difficulty out of life drawing. Learn to see and draw proportion as the basis of expressive figure drawing. You will use a variety of media as you explore the different aspects of drawing. The skills you use in this course are central to all forms of art making.
Anton has been teaching drawing and painting to students for over a decade .He brings to his classes his artistic insight and a specific and passionate conviction about drawing and its place in the development of the artistic sensibility. The studio is geared to facilitate your learning and the location is close to the city centre.
