with Artist, Jennifer Koury
2-Day Workshop on Sundays, March 17th & 24th from 2:00pm – 5:00pm

The Roycroft Campus – 21 South Grove St. East Aurora, NY

Journey into drawing using dark and light values to create forms and shapes. Students will experiment using toned paper with sepia, charcoal, and white pencils to create form and tonal temperature. Explore varied additive and subtractive tonal techniques and line quality variation. Using varied still life and statues for inspiration, develop a fundamental understanding of planes on forms, and light cast on forms, including highlights, form shadows, and the resulting cast shadows. Upon completion, participants are encouraged to continue their personal drawing journey to build upon their learned drawing skills.

Students are required to bring their own supplies. Easels and tables are supplied by the Castiglia Art Center. All other materials will be supplied by each individual. See the suggested Supply List.
