When: Thursday, Nov. 17 from 4 - 6 pm Where: La Jolla Community Center, 6811 La Jolla Blvd., La Jolla
Two essential elements of a good work of two-dimensional art – no matter the subject or whether it is realistic or abstract - are value and composition. To explore what makes a good composition, we will consider these important ideas when creating an image:
- Verticals, horizontals, and diagonals
- Focal point and the Rule of Thirds
- Overall design: triangular or circular
During the session, participants will sketch and make preliminary designs for three artworks.
Please bring the following materials with you:
- 10 sheets letter sized paper
- Pencil, Charcoal or charcoal pencil
- Eraser
- Ruler
- Scissors
- Scotch Tape
This is a free demonstration. We look forward to having you join us!
