Today we'll be looking at the work of the Italian artist Caravaggio. Caravaggio adopted *chiaroscuro* lighting in his paintings in the 16th century. *Chiaroscuro* is an Italian term referencing the contrast of light (chiar) and dark (oscuro) to model three-dimensional forms. It’s a style that has quite dramatic results and one that photographers can use to create dramatic images. **Join us for a workshop in 2 parts:** * Informative session on the incredibly interesting life and work of Caravaggio * Shoot chiaroscuro style * We will also discuss street photography tips **PAYMENT OPTIONS** * **PayPal via RSVP** * The Meetup transaction fee will be added. and you'll automatically be added to attend * **Send £25 via PayPal** to \*\*[creativebeansproductions@gmail.com**](http://creativebeansproductions@gmail.com%2A%2A/) with no extra fee. * Send us a text or comment below and we will add you to the event attendee list.

**Autumn Term 2025** Spring Term Sunday, March 1st 10.00am- 4.00pm **Tutor: Daisy Perkins** **Dancer and model: Flora Baltz** *Cost £95* Drawing and image making often works best when the whole of our mind-body is engaged. * Discover new ways of drawing * Respond to live movement with line, rhythm, gesture, and mass. * Experiment with materials and scale, from fluid ink washes to large collaborative drawings, blending abstraction with the figure. * Develop a resolved final work and leave with a fresh, embodied approach to mark-making that you can carry into your own practice. During this workshop we will become interested in how we can connect with movement, and how we can use this to make more powerful uncontrived visual statements. * **Notice how your own body feels and responds** * **Let physical sensation, rhythm, and inner state guide mark-making** * **Feel movement in the body before translating it into drawing** This workshop brings together the disciplines of drawing and dance to explore new ways of seeing, sensing, and making. Guided by Daisy and working with a dancer, participants will step beyond conventional figure drawing into a more embodied, responsive practice. You’ll begin by treating the hand as a seismograph—a recorder of rhythm and presence rather than mere outline—using movement awareness, gestural drawing, and collective mark-making to open up expressive possibilities. You’ll develop from free-flowing experiments into a resolved final work that blends abstraction, gesture, and form. Along the way, you’ll try out a variety of dry and wet media and experiment with mass, line, erasure, expression, disruption and layering, as you learn to capture both motion and stillness. With space for reflection and discussion built in, the workshop offers not only technical exploration but also a deepening sense of the creative process. Attendees will leave with fresh approaches to drawing the figure, a body of experimental works, and the beginnings of a personal language informed by movement, rhythm, and embodied experience. * We will be working with a nude dancer * Materials provided * We plan to share a vegetarian lunch £12, optional.
