Drawing at the Museum
This class is Beginner / Intermediate level.
Hey everyone, this event is a class / outing. It will be for Sunday, August 3, 10:30 am at the MBAM (Musée des Beaux Arts de Montreal).
After presenting your ticket, we will meet at the museum cafe on the 2nd floor, which is to the right of the main entrance. Here I will give an overview of the "Block In" Technique used by Portrait Artists. This method is primarily used to measure proportions and block in your shadows. The overview and Q&A should be about 30 minutes.
At 11 am, we will move from floor to floor, spending no more than 15 minutes per subject, with 2-3 subjects / floor. The goal is to draw fairly accurate thumbnails (3x2 inches, in 2-3 tones) of the paintings or statues. I will shadow the group to give tips / suggestions or in case you have any questions.
To those who prefer to go lone wolf or go awol after the theory, please feel free to do so.
You will need to carry your supplies, so I recommend going light with just a sketchpad, pencil or pen, and eraser - whatever can fit in your pockets. If you have a big bag or backpack, you will be required to check them in at the lobby.
Admission is FREE on that day for Quebec residences (they may require you to show an ID / address), so be sure to choose the 0.00$ ticket, under "General Admission". You can also choose to pay or donate.
You will receive an email from MBAM, with an attached PDF (your ticket) with a QR code.
