Do you find yourself less than confident with your sketching? This class will help you improve your drawing skills.
This workshop will provide you with a straightforward 3-step drawing process that you can apply whether you are creating a simple guide sketch for your favorite medium or a full-scale graphite pencil drawing.
Over the course of the workshop, we will practice and apply basic principles to create several projects, working from still- life objects and photographs.
What to Bring:
- Drawing pencils: 2H, HB or F, 3B (recommended brands: Staedtler, Design, Blick)
- Kneaded eraser & Pink Pearl eraser
- Drawing board or other smooth surface (tables at facility have mild texture)
- Colored pencils (recommended—soft core types: Prismacolor Premier, Derwent Lightfast, Faber-Castell Polychromos, Caran’d Ache Luminance).
Note: Drawing paper will be provided by the instructor (a $4.00 materials fee is included in the registration fee to cover this).
About the Instructor:
Sandra Kimzey Wimbish currently lives and expresses her creativity in Clemmons, NC. Her art celebrates the beauty of the natural world—people, animals, flowers, and landscapes. Using a variety of mediums, and often combining them, Sandra’s art comes to life with acrylics, colored pencils, graphite, and ink.
Three of Sandra’s current focuses are her American Wildlife series, which includes both ink and graphite works, her growing Sepia Tones series of acrylic canvases, and her most recent series of coastal-inspired large canvases.
Sandra has exhibited and taught art in her previous homes in Kansas, Texas, New Mexico, and now, in North Carolina. She divides her time between public art (murals, mosaics), studio practice, exhibitions, and teaching.
