Chasing Shadows: Drawing Course
Presented by Black Pearl Art Academy
Step into the cool sanctuary of the Bermuda National Gallery for a seven-week drawing intensive. We are stripping away the distraction of colour to focus on the raw foundations of art: Value, Mood, and Atmosphere.
Master the drama of Chiaroscuro, the interplay of extreme light and deep dark, using a trusty pencil, professional vine charcoal, ink, and premium graphite.
What You Will Explore:
-
The Architecture of Light: Perspective, scaling, and the organization of composition and pictorial space.
-
The Noir Still Life: Using "subtractive" drawing techniques to find light in the darkness.
-
The Art of Observation: We focus on the "fundamental of seeing”, the perceptual shifts between artist and subject.
"When it gets dark, we’re looking for light.”
Whether you are reconnecting with a long-lost passion or are a skilled artist looking to sharpen your skills, you will learn to see the world not in colour, but in expressive value.
