charcoal & graphite journal page |
As mentioned in yesterday's blog (here)
I am lucky to be taking a two day weekend class
with the well known & popular teacher, Katie Kendrick.
Just as I had always heard, Katie is a fabulous teacher.

our first exercise was with charcoal & graphite ...

Next, we used charcoal & graphite to start our canvas ...
drawn from an image and eventually adding color.
17 artists guided by Katie to individual expressions.

Katie gifted each class members with a copy of her recent work,

sketches and notes.

Really a great day, and we are all looking forward
to another eight hours tomorrow.
And yes, Katie Kendrick really does glow!
Wishing you a wonderful Sunday too.
