Class

Drawing & Sculpting From a Cast

Instructor:	Lesa Cook
Description:	THIS CLASS IS NOW CLOSED. No class meeting on January 26. Using a "sight/size" approach from historical art ateliers, students will work from individual plaster casts in order to train the eye to observe, compare, and relate. Instructor Lesa Cook will teach students to visually translate an object from large planes and general geometric shapes to smaller, more detailed shapes; shade and blend effectively; and create a finished realistic drawing or sculpture. A perfect step for novice and intermediate artists. Students should bring the following ART SUPPLIES for Drawers: Chamois cloth, kneaded eraser, bullet or Staedtler (metal, not plastic) pencil sharpener, drawing pad (18x24 inch), vine charcoal, black charcoal pencils, white charcoal pencil, blending stumps and tortillons, sanding block, paper towels (approximate value $35); ART SUPPLIES for Sculptors: Clay, clay tools, plastic bags, sponge, newsprint, rags. NOTE: A limited supply of Basic Drawing Kits are available for purchase at the Delaplaine (excluding drawing pad) for $22.95; A limited supply of clay at $19 per 25-lb bag is available for purchase at the Delaplaine. Advance notice required.
