Expressive Charcoal Portraits
with Manuela Pilz on the Gold Coast
SATURDAY 15 TH JULY and SUNDAY 16 TH JULY
After her Darcy Doyle win for portraiture with "A Man in Thought", Manuela Pilz is visiting us from Tasmania to share her experience in shading and portraiture with us again. Join her in this weekend workshop where you will have 2 whole days to explore a fun and expressive method for portraying the portrait.
With step-by-step demonstrations, participants will have the opportunity to learn about how to draw a head, neck and shoulders and the features of the face straight on. You will be introduced to the tools and guidelines that help get proportions and dynamic and helpful warm up exercises will be given in how to draw tonally with white and black charcoal. Manuela will, throughout the two days, give guidance, feedback, and support.
The reference images will be supplied by Manuela and time will be given to explaining the process of choosing a good reference image for a tonal drawing. We will look at how light reveals the forms on the face and how we can show this in our drawings.
Level
Beginners
This class is recommended for those who have not only drawn for some time but also for those who have done any of the 1-Day drawing workshops at Artable and are ready for drawing a large head using different types of charcoal. If you are not sure whether you are ready, please contact our staff for advice.
If you attended the workshop last year, as we focused on a profile drawing, this workshop will be a perfect opportunity for you to revise these skills but with a different image and different angle.
If you have drawn a great deal before and have finished the first studies and head at the end of the first day, we can work on an image brought in by you on the second day. It is important to look at Manuela's guidelines on photo reference photos and it is recommended we draw adults to practice the proportions taught in class. For those of you learning to draw the face, it is recommended you work from a photo reference supplied by the teacher to avoid unnecessary challenges.
A materials list and photo reference guidelines will be supplied on registration.

Back to Basics: A course to give you confidence in your drawing skills.

• This course has been designed for those beginner artists who would like to get sufficient tools and skills to give them confidence which can enable them to join painting courses the following year irrespective of whether they wish to do landscape, portraiture or still life.
• This is also levelled at those who need a refresher in drawing. All these exercises are equally relevant for those who have drawn before and need a refresher.

2-Day Charcoal Portraits
Dates: 2nd and 3rd of July 2022
Time: 9.30 am - 4pm
Using both black and white charcoal on toned paper is a technique popular with artists due to its quick and impactful results. They allow for both gentle and moody portraits and the colour of the toned paper can add another expressive layer to what you wish to say about your subject.
In this class the reference images will be supplied by Manuela and time will be given to explaining the process of choosing a good reference image for a tonal drawing. We will look at how light reveals the forms on the face and how we can show this in our drawings. We will spend time doing some simple exercises to help us show the different tones on some features of the face. Manuela will then introduce you to the essential tools that will enable you to draw up the head considering proportions through continuous demonstrations and guidance.

1-Day Part II
Oil painting Workshop for Grisaille
Dates: Sat 23rd April 2022
Time: 10 am - 4pm (6 hrs)
Course price: $250 materials included
(weekend price $395 with colour mixing workshop on Sunday below)
Max numbers 10 participants
Venue: Garasu Art Studio, 10 Adios court, Mudgeeraba, QLD
Before we start painting with a full colour palette, it is essential to practice recognising and mixing tones well.
We will be using just two colours to mix up our tones and create strings of tone. We will also learn about the qualities of Ivory Black and Titanium white, and how to apply paint to create a three-dimensional form of a face.
This is excellent for beginners and for more advanced students as you can refine your understanding of brush work and edge control without having to worry about mixing a wide range of colours.
Grisaille is often done as an underpainting (look at October workshops) and then the colour is applied on top of this underpainting, but they can be beautiful studies in their own right.
Materials: Oil paints, canvas boards and medium will be provided. Materials list will be provided for brushes,

Painting in the Wild is back with Whaia Creation posing for us.
Really this is Sketch Theatre but in the winter we set it outside.
Last year with the arrival of Covid there was the risk of all group art activities being halted. Luckily due to the availability of a wonderful garden at the Garasu Art Studios property, we could continue to draw or paint from life and socially distance surrounded by beauty. From this was born 2 art activities - Painting in the Wild or Drawing in the Wild. Go to the News Blog to see photos of last years events.
Painting in the Wild is usually a costumed figure set outdoors, however, at times the model will pose nude. This is an untutored life painting or drawing session so some experience is required.
For tutored sessions please contact me regarding Drawing in the Wild which is a tutored session on the second Saturday of each month. For more info go to Life Drawing page.

Art on the Barron in Mareeba.
5 Day art retreat with 4 Queensland Artists
Penny Gilbert-Ng, Manuela Pilz, Don Milner and Gary Myers
Dates Mon 17th May - Fri 21st May 2021
About Workshop
This drawing workshop will be a perfect opportunity for those artists who love or are ready to try drawing from a model with the support of an instructor. Drawing a clothed model is a great opportunity to not only practice drawing the whole figure and folds of clothing but more importantly it helps to enhance the character. Sometimes it is difficult to move away from working from photographic reference, and one of my strengths as a tutor is to help artists dealing with the usual physical and mental obstacles that come up when drawing from life. The workshop will then be a combination between working from the reference photos - to assist participants to grasp the methods of working through the more challenging aspects of drawing a figure-and then from the model themselves. This blended approach provides a progressive yet manageable method to assist the participants understanding in drawing the figure from live observation.
Media: Several types of charcoal and chalk on toned paper or with graphite.
Fees: $695 with a non-refundable deposit of $150 to be paid by Wednesday 17th February 2021
Full payment must be received by COB Friday 16th April 2021

There are many of you who are curious about joining my life drawing classes but feel you need a little preparation before dealing with the pressure of a live model.
This 2 day workshop is designed to break everything down into manageable steps and take away the the feeling of overwhelm when confronted by a life drawing class and especially when dealing with quick short poses.
We will draw both the female and male figure and look at the main differences in how to draw them. Standing, seated and lying poses will also be explained. A lot of attention will be given to how to represent the energy of the model, its relationship with the setting and simultaneously check on proportion.
To keep it for absolute beginners we will be working mainly from photo reference. However, some three dimensional references will be used too to prepare you for working from life.
This workshop will be done at Garasu Art studios in Mudgeeraba in the studio during summer and in the winter it will be done outdoors. This is a special workshop I plan to do just once or twice a year if there is demand..
