Expressive Trees in Charcoal with Emily Rose Fine Art

This course is perfect for people afraid of drawing, or people wanting to improve their drawing skills!

We will have a playful morning with charcoal and various papers while we explore mark making and how this can change the quality of our drawings in only a few hours.

You will produce a small collection of tree drawings with my help as we consider form, drape, composition and perspective. While these can be complicated concepts, we will come at them in a playful manner that makes them easy to approach and incorporate into your own work.

In the afternoon, we will turn our attention to colour. Working with a limited pastel chalk palette, we will create a dynamic Scots Pine portrait. We will incorporate what we have learned in the morning to make this drawing appear to tower over us with expressive perspective and use our fauvist-inspired colours to create a captivating piece.

This workshop is open to all levels, just bring an enthusiastic attitude and borrow one of our aprons as it can get messy!

Skill level: Suitable for all.

Cost: £80 per person - includes all materials and equipment use.
