Travel Diary Masterclass with with Noel Thurgate
Monday 15 March, 10.00am - 4.00pm
Overview
Date: Monday 15th March 2021
Time: 10.00am – 4.00pm
This workshop is for travel enthusiasts or anyone with limited time to capture the essence of a subject.
Rather than stay in one spot for lengthy drawing we’ll be ‘on the move’ frequently to create impressions of different views by simplifying a complex subject.
Using basic drawing techniques and materials you will learn compositional dynamics and how to layer within the landscape to capture an illusion of space and depth. Pictorial structure will enhance your travel diaries.
