The Painterly Sketch:
Creating Studies Using Graphite, Paints, and Mediums

When: Friday, July 11, 9 am – Noon (3 Hours)
Cost: $75
Level: Intermediate and Advanced
Instructor: Dick Folse

For centuries, artists such as Jacob van Ruisdael, Constable, Corot, Sargent, and Cezanne have created smaller sketches and studies in the field and in the studio to capture a sense of the light, color, and mood. They have sketched combining graphite or charcoal with water or oil-based media to work out compositional ideas, and capture important details. These works are important art in their own right even though they often led to larger, more finished paintings. In this workshop, participants will explore the painterly sketch using graphite, charcoal, acrylic medium, watercolors, gouache, and oils.
