CHARCOAL Drawing Art Classes - Brisbane

Saturdays OR Sundays | 12 - 2pm OR 2 - 4pm

In ART101's Brisbane studio, our focus is on portraiture and still life, initially using the grid method as you train your eye to see shape and shading. Drawing is the starting point to train your eye to really see like an artist. This method has yielded consistently successful results for all new students, regardless of experience. All of the images you see have been completed by newbies in the studio. 

If you've only ever drawn with a pencil you will be astounded at just how wonderful it is to work in charcoal. From portraiture to figure drawing to preparatory sketch studies, charcoal is a foundation medium of both drawing and painting disciplines. 

As students' progress is accelerated with at home practice, you will need your own materials for use in the studio and at home. The list is available here and links directly to Amazon.
