The Drawing & Painting Classes will develop the basic techniques and personal observational principles required to draw and paint, expressively and with confidence.
You will explore a variety of drawing media including pencils, charcoal, and paint. The course will introduce still life, landscape, botanicals, animals, and figures/portraits working to a compositional theme. You will be introduced to new ways of seeing, thinking, and working and you will be encouraged to develop your own individual styles and methods.
By the end of this course you will be able to:
- Use observational skills and different drawing techniques
- Draw and paint with more confidence
- Demonstrate a confident use of colour and techniques
- Work with a range of media and develop your own style
- Relate your work to contemporary and historical styles and ideas
Students will be individually guided throughout their projects with the aim of continuing to improve their skills and learn from an experienced artist.
This class will be led by Joseph Casapinta, one of Malta's leading watercolour artists. This course is suitable for students of all levels and groups are kept small to ensure individual guidance and attention.
