Drawing Fundamentals 2: Tone - Winter 2 ***NEW***


  • OPAL - Gallery 720 CHICAGO AVE Oak Park, IL (map)

***NEW*** This class will investigate the concepts and methods of tonal (value) drawing. Previous experience with basic layout and measuring techniques would be beneficial to the incoming student. Using still life subject matter, we will explore the fundamental properties of value and a range of media and methods available in depicting value in observational drawing. Additive and additive/subtractive methods of creating value will be introduced and students will have the opportunity to explore a broad range of approaches. Instruction will be tailored toward the progress of each student.

This class can be repeated.

Mondays, 10:00am to 12:00pm

Instructor: David Kohan
