Fused: Fashion, Art, Life Drawing

Charcoal Woman 

In February 2012, Edinburgh based artist Christine Clark brings you FUSED: a one day workshop which will give you the chance to immerse yourself in the world of Art, Life Drawing, Photographic Images and Fashion. Each Calender month Fused will change it's concept providing a new exciting visual to work from.

The inaugural workshop begins with a stunning fashion installation combining  garments from designer Judy R Clark with an eclectic mix of shoes, lamps, fabrics, found objects, photographs and ornate clothing to provide an exciting space for the Life Model and participants to work from.

The Workshop is a one day course for all levels  and ages designed to improve drawing skills, support the study of other courses or for those wishing to build a portfolio for higher education. Equally there is an opportunity for those interested in the world of Art, Fashion Life Drawing and Photography to come along to have some fun and explore new techniques. 

The life model will pose within the fashion inspired installation and a variety of materials and surfaces will be introduced where students will be encouraged to experiment; flourishing a fresh output of ideas considering line tone, colour texture and collage.

Looking at the figure in motion, fabric textures and exploring individual creative process students will produce a number of different studies and a finished drawing(s). There will also be an opportunity to take photographs so you can then work from the pictures in your own time.

A varied selection of different archives, magazines and imagery will also be available.

Materials, easels and drawing boards will be provided with refreshments and lunch break

The concept of  Fused will change monthly inviting you back for a different  experience within the Workshop.
