This class explores drawing from the ground up, using charcoal and graphite powder as the foundation for our drawings. Rather than beginning with line alone, we’ll build form through tone, atmosphere, lifting, and erasure, allowing each material’s unique character to guide the process. Charcoal brings depth and velvety darkness, while graphite powder offers softness, subtlety, and light. This class is an invitation to experiment, get a little messy, and discover new ways of building a drawing. Please note: There is a $45 model fee, payable in class. Class Level: Intermediate to Advanced. More info: jjordanbruns@gmail.com; jjbruns.com/class-notes/experimental-drawing/. Minimum age 14. 9 sessions.
