Drawing Lab: Qian Lin (Lisa), 13 March 2014
Drawing in the Cafe:
Materials
Pencil, charcoal, pastel, oil pastel, pen, water colour on cardboard of different colours & sizes .
Drawing 1: ( 30 minutes)
Firstly, you can sit anywhere you want in the coffee bar, or even sit outside of it looking inside. Draw the whole atmosphere , but just keep your attention on the scene and the figure can be unclear.
( break 10 minutes)
Drawing 2: (40 minutes)
Select 1 or 2 people or the objects you are interested in, draw in details, for 1 or 2 drawings.
Discussion: ( 10 minutes)
Somewhat surprisingly (to me) for visual artists some students find drawing outside the studio intimidating. I think everybody found the relaxed & controlled environment conducive to drawing away from the studio.
