Pastels and the Figure
Monday, 3:00 pm
June 1 – June 22 | Ages 16+

in , , ,

Class:

This 4-week in this Pastels and the Figure class, students will explore depictions of the figure through the mediums of collage and pastels.

Students will begin by studying surface and support development; how does the surface on which you work inform the narrative of the piece? Students will create a surface through collaged material and paper, allowing students to explore different adhering techniques. This surface will provide a rich atmosphere on which to develop figural works with the use of both types of pastels; chalk and oil. Depictions of the figure will be informed by collaged images, considering iteration and the lives of the pieces we create.

What You’ll Learn:

Students will learn an experimental approach to material and pastel. Leaning away from traditional usage of pastel, this class will encourage processing of images through multiple iterations; in a conceptually focused class, students will learn how collage and iteration changes and informs the piece on which they work.

The figure will then be approached abstractly and intuitively, gaining experience in technical usage of chalk and oil pastels and how they interact with the worked surfaces.

Students will work in a group-learning environment, and will also have the opportunity for one-on-one guidance and feedback on their artwork from the instructor.

What You’ll Leave With:

Students will leave with physical swatches of their material experiments and collages as well as experience in approaching art making as a practice in collecting and remembering. The “final” piece will be a worked pastel drawing upon their final worked surface.

Deadline to register by: May 27th
