DEMONSTRATION WITH BILL HALL
WEDNESDAY
27th AUGUST
Charcoal and shiny still life.
United Reformed Church, Caterham
Charcoal is a difficult medium to draw with, but it gives exceptional depth to the drawing. Creating a realistic effect of shine in a still life seems even harder. Bill Hall will show us it is easier than we may think.
Thank you to Jeremy Ford for the pastel workshop. With lots of great feedback!
