Art Connection - Week 113 - Cancelled
Join us every Tuesday at 11AM
Art Connection - Tuesday 29th October 2024 - GROUP CANCELLED TODAY
Hello Everyone
Apologies - Group cancelled today. Apologies for short notice.
Hope you will join me online this Tuesday where we'll work on using soft pastels to draw a beautiful scene of canoes at Invertrossachs taken by Rev Barry Hughes of St Mark's Church, Stirling.
We usually meet every Tuesday morning from 11am to 12.15pm to draw/paint together. No experience needed. Complete beginners are very welcome.
Matthew 8: 18-22
The Cost of Following Jesus
18 When Jesus saw the crowd around him, he gave orders to cross to the other side of the lake. 19 Then a teacher of the law came to him and said, “Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go.” 20 Jesus replied, “Foxes have dens and birds have nests, but the Son of Man has no place to lay his head.” 21 Another disciple said to him, “Lord, first let me go and bury my father.” 22 But Jesus told him, “Follow me, and let the dead bury their own dead.”
If you'd like to pre-sketch where the boats and background trees, water etc will be positioned, using a pencil or ideally, a soft pastel pencil, that will give us a good start and save time. Don't worry however if you can't do so, as we can do it on the day also
If you are able to print out the image to have it beside you whilst drawing, hopefully you'll find this helpful on the day. Otherwise, you can perhaps view it on your phone as this will allow you to zoom in on the detail also ?
