About this event
Instructor: Lyle Colombo The stories of our lives are intricately tied together with the objects we possess. In this course we will use both in-studio drawing time and guided exercises in creative writing to explore the physical trappings of our lives and draw out the tales they tell. Each meeting will begin with guided exercises in creative writing and drawing, during which time we will review the essential elements of creative writing and the basic design elements of the visual arts. This will be followed by time to develop and work on more substantial projects. Students will end the course with a short series of illustrated works of creative writing. This course is suitable for all skill levels; no prior drawing or creative writing experience Materials Needed: Notebook or Looseleaf Paper for Writing Pen or Pencil for Writing Drawing Pad (9 X 12 or 11X14) Set of Six Drawing Pencils 4B Graphite Stick (not charcoal) Pencil Sharpener Polymer Eraser Gum (Kneaded) Eraser Tombow Eraser Pen: Amazon
