Rediscover your passion and learn tricks that can pull you out of any drawing funk with artist Rose Adare, who will lead “Inspired Figure Drawing,” a workshop from 10 a.m.-3 p.m. Saturday at Volcano Art Center’s Niaulani Campus in Volcano Village.
A variety of drawing techniques will be covered, such as “The Tornado” and “Pop &Lock Draw” to give you fresh ways to view drawing. Learn how different music influences your drawings and how stance and movement also can play a role. This is an “out of the box” way of drawing a model and connecting with your materials, the model and your own creativity.
“You will get to try different drawing styles and techniques — pick what you like and throw the rest away,” Adare said.
Adare is a graduate of the San Francisco Academy of Art University and trained under the esteemed living master David Hardy. Adare began her fine art career at The Muse Studio, founding the annual Muse Showcase: A Celebration in Art and Music, in Berkeley, Calif.
Struck by a municipal train in 2005, Adare spent the following years in physical rehabilitation and retaught herself how to paint, returning to the art scene in 2009. Adare’s portrait series “Restraint &Revolution” was featured as part of a three-woman concurrent solo show at the Maui Arts and Cultural Center, and went on tour throughout the states with 21 evocative oil paintings.
The class fee is $65 or $60 for VAC members plus a $10 model fee. Students are asked to bring a pen, notebook, drawing materials such as charcoal, pencil, erasers and a large pad of paper at least 11-by-14 inches. Volcano Art Center Niaulani Campus is located at 19-4074 Old Volcano Road in Volcano Village.
