Service Description

All materials provided No class 16th February The endless possibilty to explore the effects of light and shadow in our world can lead to a lifelong visual awareness and fuel for our creativity. Indian Ink is an incredible and versatile medium which can achieve delicate and light observations as well as extremely dramatic effects of high contrast we may witness in our daily environment... light shining through trees, a bright highlight reflection shining off silver...the delicate texture of a bird's feather.... a white seagull against a thundery sky... In this course, we will look at references for inspiration by the artist Richard Diebenkorn, amongst many other artists who paint and draw with Indian Ink. It is a wonderful medium to work and to push abstraction with, as well as to work in a more illustrative and precise manner. This class will be led by Jeremy Barclay. Jeremy has held a long and rich career as an artist and international art teacher. Originally a landscape painter, he went into teaching and is a multi disciplinary practitioner and can teach in many mediums. Jeremy possesses excellent communication and interpersonal skills, particularly evident when dealing with a diverse range of people of varying age groups. Subsequently, he has an outstanding capacity for engaging the young and old alike, engendering confidence and trust. Jeremy has worked predominantly in the UK and Hong Kong, and has developed art departments. Credits 1) Richard Diebenkorn, Untitled (View of Deck), 1965, ink on paper, 16 7_8 x 12 3_8 in.
