-Color and light
-Pioneers of Plein Air

Richard Morris Tonal Drawing Workshop - FREE !!!

Good news !!!

3Kicks Fine Art Studio is hosting a free Tonal Drawing workshop by Richard Morris for people who would like to learn more about figurative drawing.

Workshop description: Fundamental concepts such as construction, anatomy, and accuracy will be stressed. However, the main focus will be on understanding light, manipulation of value for the sake of composition, and the editing of visual information to express an overall concept. The goal will be for students to take their life drawings to a higher level of finish, but more importantly develop a method which suits their personal vision.

Date: Dec. 18th 11am - 6pm
Space is limited, sign up early!!!

Please contact us at 626. 466. 5043 or 3Kicksfineartstudio@gmail.com

Head Drawing by Glen Orbik

This head drawing class is for all level of students. It is a class that focuses 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 the transition from drawing to painting as well sharpening the skills of those who already paint and draw.

There are only a few spots open for this class, to sign up, please contact us at 3kicksfineartstudio@gmail.com or 626. 466. 5043.

Glen Orbik, a student of Fred Fixler and the Reilly method, continues to follow Fred's precepts and has been drawing, painting, and illustration for over 20 years, Known for his dramatic paintings often emphasizing chiaroscuro, his subjects include everything from Film-Noir to super heroes, pin-ups to Rockwell style situations. His clients include Sony, Universal, Warner Bros., DC and Marvel Comics, Subway Restaurants, Clampett Studios and TSR. Among his book covers for Avon, Berkley, Random House, Tor, Del Rey, and Hard Case Crime and images for Ray Bradbury, Stephen King, and Star Wars.

Charles Hu Gesture Drawing

Charles Hu's Gesture Drawing class is starting this Saturday Sept. 18th. This class is still open for enrollment. Don't miss this great class!

In this Gesture class, we will be focusing on gesture, rhythm, action, and the harmony within the pose to give drawing a more “rhythmical” instead of a stiff look. The class also will stress on using line weight to show tension, weight, and balance using model as reference to exaggerate the action within your drawing to have a more expressive and energetic look. Poses in this class range from 3 minutes to 10 minutes.
