Workshop run by Emma Fitzpatrick.

Aim: Workshop aim is to increase participants understanding and skill in the use of values in their work e.g examining range of light and dark, placement, use of white, negative shapes and help direct viewers eye around a work and create sense of movement.

Description:The workshop will consist of short indoor exercises in the Snug (separate room within The Exchange on the ground floor) followed by short outdoor sketching exercises of buildings around the area but these will be done indoors if weather is bad. Please note that the exercises are aimed at developing your understanding and use of some fundamental principals and not aimed at producing finished work. Maximum 10 participants.

What to bring: Bring a few different kinds of drawing materials e.g pencil, pen, and ink, charcoal or watercolour and brush, pencils, coffee mixers, rubber, pastels or whatever you normally use. Don't buy anything specially for this. A sketchpad (A4 or A3 cartridge) and some watercolour paper if you have it (can buy some from me on the day). Don't bring too much gear as we want to move about outside easily so just a small sample of drawing materials is fine for the exercises and I will bring stuff if you need it. Bring a foldable stool unless you are happy to stand around and draw. Clothing to suit the weather. Optional: a sample print out of artists work you admire to talk about at the end.
