Drawing on Coloured Papers
Led by Jo Hall
Choosing a different coloured paper for each session we explore how paper colour can be exploited as part of the composition. Within this we will look at line, tone, form, mark making, texture and pattern using a variety of drawing media. Initially working from still life objects, the first week from natural forms e.g. a sea shell or fruit, later in the course there will be an opportunity to draw a landscape in colour or make a portrait study using the three-crayon technique.
Some objects will be supplied for the first session or bring a natural form you would like to draw.
Please bring your own materials and scroll down for detailed info on what you will need.
Some papers will be available from the tutor at cost.
Tues 28 Feb - 4 Apr
12.30pm - 3.30pm
£120 per 6-week course
Suitable for 18+ years
Materials Info
We will experiment with coloured pastel papers and some smoother coloured drawing papers suitable for other drawing media. A small sample pack of papers for the first session (cost about £2.00) will be available from the tutor for the first session. Other coloured papers will also be available at cost.
Please bring: drawing board and clips or tape to hold your paper, putty eraser, plastic eraser, paper towel, spray fixative for chalky media (to be used outside only), craft knife or pencil sharpener, small piece of sandpaper, water pots if using pen and ink (plus brush for brush drawing with ink)
Drawing media: you will only need black and white for the first week
Choose from the following suggestions;
Dry media: charcoal and white chalk pastel, pastel pencil, conté crayon in black white and sanguine, any coloured pencil, or graphite pencil or block
Wet media: e.g. pen/stick/brush and ink, paint pen, black fine liner and brush pens
It would be good to have something from each list above. The different kinds of drawing media will be discussed at the first session. Don’t bring large tins and boxes of colour as we will be working in an almost monochrome way first of all gradually introducing more colour in the following weeks.

Lunana: A Yak In The Classroom (PG)
Dir: Pawo Choyning Dorji 2019 | 109 mins
Dzongkha with English subtitles.
The Lunana school is not only the most remote school in Bhutan, but it is probably the most remote school in the world.
Ugyen is a disillusioned schoolteacher. He is four years into five years of mandatory service when he is reluctantly transferred to teach at the school.
It is deep in the Himalayan glaciers and cut off from modern life. In a classroom with no electricity or even a blackboard, he finds a yak, who lives there out of the cold.
