Opening This Week


ELEMENTS
08 - 10 March 2013

Open daily 12 - 6pm
Private View: Friday 8th March (6 - 9pm)

Elements represents a journey through the process of expression.

Alex Relph’s sculptures are essentially immediate and distinctly minimalist; they speak honestly with often quirky humour about the exploration of line and form. Working with balance and impressions of movement Alex enjoys being playful during the creation of the sculptures, allowing them to develop organically.

Stuart Witham’s paintings relate to memory; points of reference as a reminder of our existence in today's society. His works are reflective mementos of collective thoughts and experiences.

This one-day class on drawing the figure from life will show you how to break down such a complex subject into easy to follow steps. Tuition on the course is individual, therefore can be adapted to each students' needs. We will have a seven hours pose with the model, divided in two sessions. In the morning session, the focus will be on capturing proportions, gesture, and body type. In the afternoon, we will progress into understanding values and edges. This is the perfect opportunity to push your drawing standard through careful and sustained observation of the model, great for both beginners and advanced students.

A great one-day class on painting from life for beginners and advanced students alike. Tuition on the course is individual, therefore can be adapted to each students' needs. You will be given an introduction to oil and acrylic painting as well as learn how to approach a life study. The class will consist of one long pose with the model, divided in two sessions. To start, the focus will be on proportions and gesture, effectively learning how to draw with a brush. Next we will progress into understanding painting ‘alla prima’ to capture light and colour and give an accurate visual impression of the subject. By the end of the day you will have learned how to quickly represent the figure in paint through personalized instruction based on individual needs.
