Make Your Mark: Drawing Improv Workshop | Taught by Greg Benge
Advertisement
An empty page is a lot like an empty stage. Many people who want to draw are stopped by self-consciousness and comparison. Even working artists and performers can become rigid, disconnected from spontaneity.
In this 2-day workshop, we'll employ the values of improvisation to increase creative confidence and encourage play.
We'll cover things like:
- Simple drawing tips and practical techniques for clearer, more confident mark-making
- Discussing how drawings can generate scenes, and how scenes can generate drawings
- Appreciating drawing as a live, relational act—not a final product
- Visual drawing exercises that build upon each other
This 2-day workshop is designed for improvisors of all artistic skill levels to foster thinking visually and explore the vibrant relationship between drawing and performing. Participants will learn emerging improvisational drawing formats and collaborate to design their own novel format.
