Fridays, May 31 – June 28, 2024 – 10:00 – 12:30pm
with J. Jordan Bruns
When two shapes of different value love each other very much, they sometimes come together to create an edge. Experimental Drawing: Edgework, celebrates the union of two shapes and the edge they create. Edges make up our physical reality, so if our aim is to make realistic looking/feeling drawings, we need adopt the edge. Our in-class work will be split between still life and the live model. Please note there is a $30 model fee paid in class.
