LLAMA LIFE DRAWING ON KINGS YARD



SPRINGS GALLERY PRESENTS—


LLAMA LIFE DRAWING
with Sharon Stolzenberger

Where: Outside the gallery on Kings Yard, 220 Xenia Avenue, Yellow Springs, OH
When: Saturday, June 2, 2012, 2PM – 4PM
Fee: $30; minimal supplies needed; advance registration is required.

In this workshop we will be working from a live model, practicing skills needed to draw from life. The instructor will demonstrate and discuss ways to sketch the model from contour to gesture drawings to finished drawings. Participants will have ample time to work from the model. Supplies needed can be inexpensive drawing paper, HB pencils, charcoal, charcoal pencils, crayons...whatever makes marks that you are comfortable working with. Also bring a few sheets of good drawing paper with a sturdy board (foamcore, gatorbord, plywood) and clips for the paper.
Instructor Sharon Stolzenberger is a graduate of the Dayton Art Institute. She began her art career as an illustrator, then art director, with Gibson Greeting Card Company. Now self-employed, she paints full time and exhibits in Springs Gallery and in art shows throughout the country. Her mixed media paintings have won awards in many Ohio Watercolor Society exhibitions and have exhibited nationally in the Society of Animal Artists annual exhibitions. Sharon’s work has also been included in books such as New Creative Collage Techniques and Confident Color by Nita Leland, both from North Light Books.

The above picture is titled “Spittin’ Images.” It is from an original 22 x 30" Sharon Stolzenberger watercolor painting.
