ABOUT THIS COURSE
This course is about the properties of white color, decorative and applied techniques of visual art and, of course, about fairy tales. We will draw fairy-tale plots, fairy-tale characters, already known and fictitious (we will come up with their images right during the lesson).
We will learn about the color white:
– that it may be brighter than it seems,
– that it best reflects neighboring colors
– how it interacts with other colors
– that it gives brightness and sonority to the work, adds “air” to the composition
– how with the help of white accents you can detail the work and generally improve it.
Each work is a finished masterpiece!
Participation in the course will open up new knowledge about the color white, which most have not even thought about, teach new arts and crafts techniques, and develop imagination.
The course is conducted interactively, through the video call program Zoom. It consists of 9 lessons, conducted weekly from 12 October to 7 December 2023.
Time of Lessons:
- Each Thursday, 5:00pm – 6:30pm Queensland time (UTC/GMT+10) (+1 hour in Sydney, Canberra and Melbourne)
