Register for the workshop
This May I will be teaching “Large Scale Figure Drawing in Charcoal” at Alia Fine Art Studios in Raleigh, NC.
Across three days students will render a life-sized nude drawing of a live model in charcoal and other materials, using a process of pentimenti to push and pull between the openness of the blank page to the resolutions of a finished work. At the end of each work session we will erase/remove our images (to the best of our ability), then at the start of the next session use the “ghosts” of the previous drawing etched into our papers to begin again. This sustained drawing process, along with collaborations with fellow students, and individual and group conversations, will help us hone our eyes and methods, and expand how we approach drawing as a way of seeing, thinking, knowing, and representing others and ultimately ourselves.
Only a few spots left! Register now.
