30 people attended the workshop. We had three models to work from.
Dawn was a busy lady! Luckily, the Portrait Society had plenty of people to help her out with the details.
We drew a playing card, which matched a place on the floor to set up our easels. Dawn had prepared an instruction sheet giving an outline of her process with some detail. The bare bones outline is as follows:
1. Design concept 2. Drawing 3. Establish pattern 4. Establish the value key 5. Develop form and structure 6. Finish
I like this quote from her paper "If you are not pleased with design or drawing, wash the canvas off and begin again. It is easier to "give birth" than to "raise the dead".
