Transforming the Still Life

October 17 - 23, 2010

All Levels

We will work from an all white still life, drawing it in many different ways to learn about value, shadows, texture, highlights and different kinds of perspective. This is a drawing class so don’t be afraid if you can’t draw, we will learn how to draw together by learning to really see through blind contour drawings. We will add color, exploring many different color schemes and their impact. Then images will be projected on to the still life to create color, texture and drama. Several abstract drawings for quilts will be the end product of the first two days of class. In the 4 to 5 day class we will choose one of the designs, consider its color scheme and composition, enlarge the drawing and begin the quilt.
