Speed Landscape Drawing and Painting

Speed Landscape Drawing and Painting

Saturday 29 March
Shelby Farms - 10am - 2 Hours
Kevin Leonard
The focus of this two-hour structured session is "speed" and "form", i.e. capturing the essence of a subject. You will be guided to complete some "warm-up" colour and drawing exercises and prepared for doing ink and watercolour-based painting in the session. You will learn how to quickly sketch and capture multiple subjects in the garden with ink and wash technique. You will be advised to keep things rather loose and time your drawing/painting. You will have a chance to meet and greet like-minded people, choose your own subjects in the garden and be guided to complete the exercises, and artwork and have some takeaway homework with the learned technique. All levels and experiences are welcome.

Note:
- Please bring a portable chair for comfort during the session.
- A clipboard is recommended to provide a sturdy surface for your papers.

Leo was an amazing therapy dog who worked with his person (my dear friend) to help people when they we're going through chemotherapy. He would lay his beautiful head on their laps and they would instantly relax. This painting was a gift in his memory.

Title or Location: Lady in orange
In the world of art, few subjects capture the essence of grace and elegance quite like the dancer. This stunning portrait encapsulates the beauty of ballet, showcasing not just the physical prowess of the dancer but also the emotional depth that comes with the art form. The dancer, adorned in a flowing orange costume, seems to defy gravity, her limbs extended in a perfect display of strength and poise. The choice of color is particularly striking the warm tones of her outfit contrast beauti
