CAG Workshop Language of the Artist 5 Class Drawing Series with O’Lynda Walker
This five Class Drawing Series will start on Saturday April 6, and continue the following Saturdays April 13, April 20, April 27, May 4. O’Lynda believes that all art starts with understanding drawing. If you’re just now learning to draw or brushing up on basic drawing principles, these sessions are designed just for you. Participants are presented with techniques in class and are given homework to continue practicing at home. While reviewing the basics, you’ll incorporate a variety of subjects, including landscapes, still life, figures, and portraits. Weather permitting, some class time will be spent drawing outside. During the five weeks, we will review: Lines – Shapes – Perspectives – Foreshadowing – Scale of Values – Texture – Color. Classes are kept small so O’Lynda can work individually with each participant. This also allows participants to be challenged regardless of skill level. Be sure to bring something for lunch and a snack during class. O’Lynda studied Fine Art at MSCW in Columbus, MS, and later earned her BFA in Interior Design from the University of Georgia. After 35 years in Interior Design, O’Lynda now spends her time creating art through traditional and water-soluble oils, pastels, watercolors and glass. She manages the Plein Air group for Cabarrus Art Guild, Concord NC.
