Masterclasses
I organize several masterclasses in order to share experiences about drawing and painting. It's a perfect way for improving your way of creating.
Just below, few themes, purposes and pictures about last sessions. If you want to know next workshops, follow my instagram page. You can also ask me to create a masterclass for a team of your company, or simply as a gift for a group of your family.
Masterclass in Puisaye (Burgundy), 2 days for "plein-air" painting, with tempera and gouaches (all public) —
July 2023
Annotating landscapes with gouaches
Eugene Delacroix’s sketchbooks are interesting examples of annotated drawings. Gouache and watercolor spot highlights complete his imprints with information useful to the full comprehension of a scene or details added after the image is finished. Color can not only be used as an important part of the image but also for means
of indication just like stage directions inform us about what is being acted in front of the spectator in a play.
In such instances, the sketchbook becomes more of a tool of documentation concerning the trip than a simple testimony.
From my book 'Pour le dessin / For drawing'.
