Ink Still Life Drawings with Jamie Lee Simpson, ages 4-9

Let loose and use the flowing qualities of ink to draw from a still life setting. Learn how to draw while referring to a subject by eye, or alternatively from a printed out photo reference. Be inspired by various characteristics like shape, space and proportion, then get creative and exaggerate or reimagine these details. This class will draw inspiration from the works of Brett Whiteley, featured in Modernist Connections.

Renowned Australian Modernist Brett Whiteley was inspired by Paris, New York, Japan, Fiji, Bali and Far North Queensland. His expressive qualities are intrinsically part of his repertoire, capturing turbulent weather and earth through his use of organic lines.

All materials are provided, and students can be dropped off to enjoy this activity under the supervision of our qualified teachers.
