Art Class: Chiaroscuro Mastery Drawing Workshop

Exploring the technique of chiaroscuro using various materials as subject matter, this workshop will enhance participants' understanding of light, shadow, and texture in their drawings.

What is Chiaroscuro?
Chiaroscuro, in art, is the use of strong contrasts between light and dark, usually bold contrasts affecting a whole composition. It is also a technical term used by artists and art historians for the use of contrasts of light to achieve a sense of volume in modelling three-dimensional objects and figures.
