Art for Beginners - Newark Buttermarket - Adult Learning

About this course

Art for Beginners is an introduction to different ways of creating an image through drawing and painting techniques. No previous experience is necessary, but everyone is welcome as you will learn from your own starting point! Come along and have a go! In each session you will try out different techniques that will encourage and build confidence in your drawing skills and each activity will be a step on from the previous weeks. During the course you will be introduced to a range of drawing and painting media, techniques and processes that are simple but creative and will enable you to produce observational drawings from a range of subject matter. You will learn about the properties of different media and the potential of different image making techniques through looking at and discussing other artists work and by demonstrations, personal experimentation and individual tuition. By the end of the course everyone will have explored and gained confidence with a wide range of media and techniques, produced finished creative images and gained skills for future art and design work. You will be able to: - Discuss how other artists have used drawing media and techniques to produce creative imagery. - Use pencil drawing, continuous line drawing, non-visual drawing, pen and ink, colour mixing and painting effectively to produce black and white and colour images. - Create a colour wheel to mix colour accurately. - Produce observational drawings and paintings from selected subject matter. - Use art and design language and vocabulary to describe your own work.
