Course Description

Whether you’re interested in realism or abstraction, or prefer 2D or 3D art, learning how to interpret your subject and “carve” space in a 2D plane is a crucial part of all kinds of drawing. With exercises ranging from line drawing, blind drawing, drawing negative space, reductive drawing, and some sculpture, evolve and develop your ability to interpret form and space in this 5 class session. We’ll be covering fundamental drawing, compositional, and color principles, while also breaking down mental boundaries around how we think things are, training our brains to draw what we actually see while learning some of the best ways to capture that on paper. Prepare to walk away with some cool drawings, fun exercises, and to experience the world around you a little differently. This class is open to all skill levels.

Dionis Carter

Dionis Carter is an illustrator, textile designer, and photographer. She graduated from the Savannah College of Art and Design in 2016 with a BFA in Fibers and uses traditional and non-traditional drawing, fiber, and sculptural processes. Her designs, though informed by history and tradition, are inspired by nature and issues in contemporary society, such as environmentalism, empathy, apathy, and human identity. Raised in both the woodlands of Sherborn and on the shores of Nantucket Island, she grew up infatuated with the natural world. She has a fascination for the patterns she sees in nature and society, and she hopes to incorporate travel into her work as a way to experience nature, history, and art around the world.
