Art Journey: Drawing & Painting Fundamentals
Johnny Castillo
Sun. 10am - 1pm
with
In this artistic journey, we will be primarily focusing on observational exercises and stepping beyond traditional approaches. We will learn the fundamentals of drawing and painting through a series of exercises. By combining both classical and contemporary techniques, we will push beyond what we see. We will initially focus on grasping the fundamentals, but will gradually push beyond our comfort zones through the manipulation of value, color, composition, execution, and subject matter. Our goal will be to learn the rules to eventually break them!
