This workshop emphasizes drawing methods and materials as they relate to painting. Tony will focus on the Reilly Method of drawing with its heavy emphasis on the rhythmic forms of the human figure as well as its understanding of the ‘big shape.’ The class will include quick sketch, short and long poses and cover likeness, proportion, value, shapes and edges. Tony will be demonstrating these techniques in both paint and charcoal; students will be encouraged to work in both media. This workshop is for all levels of students who want to build upon their painting skills through drawing.
