THE LEARNING CURVE Spring 2012 VISUAL ART & WRITING WORKSHOPSInspired by Nature: Beginning Drawing (outdoors) With two preparatory sessions in the studio, we’ll begin to develop drawing skills by learning techniques that enable us to draw what we see: translating elements from nature onto paper with line, shape and value. Experiment with a wide range of drawing tools, and media both dry and wet. With two drawing sessions outside, we’ll then learn to draw “en plein aire” (French for “in the open air”), getting inspired by the dramatic light and color of our desert landscape. Learn how wonderful the experience of working outdoors can be as we learn to capture quick dynamic studies of nature with fresh and brilliant results. Supply list available on the website www.thelearningcurvetucson.com.
