Pen and ink is a versatile alternative to painting, charcoal and pencil, particularly when traveling. This five-day workshop takes you to places around the city and offers an integrated approach between pen, ink and subject. Using just three pens in three analogous colors in three different values, you will learn how to build up value and form. Demos and/or lectures with examples will be given at the beginning of each day. Whether you are a beginner or advanced artist, individual attention and feedback will be provided to help you reach a new level of understanding of this medium.
