This new class will focus on drawing the horse’s head.  I have studied the anatomy of the head in depth, and would like to explore this with a group of horse lovers and artists.

We will begin with a warm up using charcoal and/ink, and then concentrate on exploring the proportions, the underlying structure of the head, the features and the muscles.  All these aspects create the form and the surface appearance.  You may want to use your love of horses to make creative drawings inspired by this study or you may want to learn more about making figurative drawing.  Either is fine.  You are welcome to bring your own favourite images, or I will have a collection of books for you to use.

If you are just starting in drawing horses, this will also be of interest to you, and I might try to include some more general information as well.   The workshop is held in the community centre in Gargunnock, an attractive village a few miles west of Stirling.  Facilities are excellent, with a well lit studio room and a private kitchen for our use.
