A big 'Thank You' to Roger Kalleske who staged a very engaging drawing workshop for Arts North on Wed 14 August, .. and a big 'Thank You' to Playford Council for the grant for Workshops and Demos which helped enable this workshop by Roger Kalleske.



No mucking around with Roger. 'Perspective' was the second word after 'Hello'! We were invited to grab our charcoals and some butchers paper for a couple of quick getting-to-know-you imaginary landscapes (single and two point perspectives), then out came the polystyrene cube for a limbering-up; hotly followed by the stack of dissimilar oblongs; followed by the sphere and ball composition; then .. a brief catching-of the-breath while drawing up a ten division grey scale; then right on to the complex vase and teapot composition.


Moving right along, we did the generic face (in charcoal), followed by an exercise in largely obliterating said face with a mid tone and then recreating the features with the eraser.  All good fun .. and all before lunch. (Lovely lunch, Colleen; a mix of Woolworths deli wraps .. particularly tasty, especially the sun-dried tomato - and very well priced, I believe)


After lunch, the tasks kept coming .. firstly draw the (seated) figure – but, draw it with a challenge incorporated in the choice of medium or method (I chose to draw with my 'wrong' hand). Finally, Roger (a sensitive man) invited us to spend a few quiet minutes just looking around .. so that we could select another subject or medium with which we were a bit uncomfortable and so finish off the day with another unfamiliar gallop.



A great day had by all! (Take a bow, Roger!)
