WORKSHOP
W11
Saturday morning
Daniel Winterbottom
In every sketch lies the opportunity to tell a story. The subject, composition, hierarchy, and related text reveal intimacies and insights, untold narratives and is often a form of advocacy for those marginalized or to reveal other topics the sketcher feels are important. Pen, pencil, and brush are all powerful tools to convey a unique point of view and offer untold perspectives. This session will offer tools of perspective, composition, shading, tone and other graphic techniques to increase the impact and narrative qualities within one’s sketches.
Supply list: Sketch pad, 2b-5b pencils, eraser, pens (micron, razor point, or others), brush and black ink/watercolor (optional)
