Week8 Term4. Christmas Trees Bicycles & Anatomy

December 3, 2016 by Erin Hill Sketching

EHS SYDNEY. Week 8 Term 4.  This week was time for a little anatomy for General classes. We were studying hands and feet. How do they really look? How do we sketch a simple version to complete our ‘people’ sketches? So by taking a darn good look at our own, we could make a composite of lots of angles. Feet are particularly intriguing when you sketch looking down. You may not have thought about those things on the end of […]

Week 1 Term 2.Sketching Nature

May 1, 2016 by Erin Hill Sketching

New people will by now have found that with their first observation class that the world is indeed made of shapes. You’ll probably never see it any other way from […]

Sketch&Wine. March 16 ’16

March 17, 2016 by Erin Hill Sketching

  Tonight it was about using colour and texture before heading into the sketch. Usually we start with a sketch and apply colour next. Let’s swap that. Let’s play with colour and not worry about ‘getting it right’. For us nothing matters, so why all the angst! Looks great and everyone let go a little and tried things they’d never have thought to do. Next Sketch&Wine  Wednesday April 13th 6.30pm – 8.30pm

Sketching. Playing With Colour

November 22, 2014 by Erin Hill Sketching

Monday Class. November 17 ’14. Another blue sky day. We’re getting these more now that summer is mostly here. Today the big tables were back and nothing setup on them. Nobody commented as being new sketchers they go with the flow. We were going to do some test patches in our sketchbooks and layer different watercolour pencils together, and see how differently they look when different ones go over another. This was also a chance to use the side of […]
