***Postponed until Feb. 21 & 22 '09

Hello,

The well known Illustrator and Figure artist will be doing a 2 day Head and Figure Drawing workshop at 3Kicks Fine Art Studio. In the workshop, Glen will explain and demonstrate from the model as well as critique students' work. The focus will be on draftsmanship, designing both 2D and 3D elements together, with special emphasis on idealization. The tonal approach stressing shapes, values, and edges is excellent training to help students make transition from drawing to painting, as well sharpening the skills of those who already paint and draw.

Date of workshop: Feb. 7th 5 pm to 10 pm and Feb. 8th 1 to 6 pm
Fee: $260 ($250 + $10 registration fee)
