Drawing the Contemplative Landscape
In the hollows of quiet places we may meet. — Fiona MacLeod
Drawing can be a contemplative practice in observation, a way of fine-tuning the eye to see through the use of graphite and colored pencils. We will explore both the macro and panoramic landscape ‘when brilliant summer-time spreads its colored mantle’ as one Celtic poet wrote. Learn more about quality of line, contrast of light and shadow, texture, color and composition as a way of connecting with the Earth. Those who think they cannot draw will discover they can.
