Pen and ink is a versatile drawing medium offering a rich black and white expressive language for illustration. With Carol Ann Morley as your guide, discover the many fun techniques that you can apply in a drawing with a wide range of strokes for shading and textures. In this one-day class you will find out how to hold the pens to make different strokes and tips and strategies to control ink flow, prevent ink blobs and correct mistakes. We will work with the crow-quill metal dip pen with India ink and the Pigma micron pen. During class we will practice a variety of pen exercises that can be used in plant drawing to represent the light and shade and textures of petals, leaves and stems. These skills will prepare you for Carol Ann's next class, “Drawing Garden Flowers in Pen and Ink”.Prerequisite: Completion of at least one “Foundations of Botanical Drawing & Painting” class, or equivalent, including drawing instruction.
