Experimental Drawing Classes – Dan Wilkinson

As I mentioned in my previous post, I am currently studying at The Learning Connexion. I am a Distance Delivery student but I signed up to one of the Main Classes – Experimental Drawing by Dan Wilkinson

We have had two classes so far and I have already been learning a lot of things. Our exercises are so freeing – it allows us to explore more and follow the flow of our drawings more. Below are some of the output I have had from our exercises.

I liked this one the most from our still life session. The effect of white pastels on black paper is quite unique.

I found the process of creating this surrealist still life drawing enjoyable. I drew the driftwood first then I had the impression that it looked much like a cave so I decided to be playful and drew some cavemen in it, playing with the scale of the driftwood.

I am excited to learn more through these classes. The class itself is interesting enough but getting the chance to interact with other artists makes it so much more insightful. I get to see the process and insights of those doing the same class with me.

We will be doing a life drawing session next week – should be interesting!
