Beginning Drawing Workshop with Dayas Silvis

​​

​

​

As artists, drawing helps develop our motor skills and eye-hand coordination.  It can also help us look at subjects from a different perspective, and it can help us have better control over scale, proportion and composition.  Drawing takes away all the distractions of color, simplifies an idea and gives the freedom to extend your imagination.  It’s also very relaxing!

​

In this class, held Saturday, October 26, from 10 am-5pm at The Artists Hand Gallery/Studio, artist Dayas Silvis will teach the fundamentals of drawing, the different materials needed, and how to use them.  She will show how to break down the subject matter into shapes, add form, texture, contour and how to finish with shading.  She will be using basic still life objects as references.  She will take you step-by-step through the process to complete an art piece.

 

Materials provided and participants will take home: pencils, charcoal, blending stubs, erasers, drawing pad of paper and tutorial booklet.

 

This is a fantastic class to dip your toe into art for beginners, and it’s a great way for experienced artists to brush-up on some skills and get back into the routine of daily drawing.

 

Don’t forget to bring lunch, or purchase one of the many offerings from ‘The Artist Hand Gallery and Espresso Bar’ during the 12-1 pm lunch break.  The paninis and salads are exceptional!  And, who doesn’t love their coffees and teas? :)

 

This class is open to everyone 16 years and older.  

The cost for the 7 hour workshop is $50 for IAA members and $60 for non-members.
