Life Drawing Inspired by Titian
Saturday 6 September 2014, 10am-4.30pm. FREE. Limited places. Clore Education Centre, Scottish National Gallery.
Inspired by Titian’s dynamic figure poses and loose handling of paint, this course will look at approaches to drawing the figure in an energetic and expressive way. Drawing materials will be combined in layers to achieve some of the effects that Titian sought and that Degas emulated in his own pastel paintings. Charcoal, ink and chalk pastels will be used on a variety of surfaces. Led by artist Damian Callan.

GENERATION: 25 Years of Contemporary Art in Scotland
Friday 26 September 2014, 1.30–4.30pm & Saturday 27 September 2014, 10am-4.30pm. FREE. Limited places. Clore Education Centre, Scottish National Gallery.
This short intensive CPD course for Teachers will begin with an examination and discussion of the GENERATION exhibition at the Scottish National Gallery – exploring ideas, materials and processes.
Thereafter, we will work in the Clore studio from our own creative ideas and those inspired by the exhibition. A variety of conventional and unconventional materials will be available to engage and experiment with, helping us to consider how choice of media, technique and form communicate meaning.
Whilst the main focus of the workshop is to allow participants personal creative exploration time, we will discuss how the ideas and materials introduced in the workshop could be used successfully in the classroom. Led by artist Audrey Grant.
