Techniques In Graphite: Draw A Better Feather

Techniques in Graphite with Marc De Groote
http://www.marcdegroote.com/
Wedneday November 11
12:00 - 3:00 pm
Robinson's Independent

Marc will demonstrate his fine detail technique on wildfowl (bird feathers):

I usually layer my graphite drawing in about 4 to 6 layers, starting with a very hard 10H pencil and work my way up to 5B.
I will show how to draw a feather or several in a group such as a piece of wing.

Materials needed would be a small piece of white Illustration board about 8 “ X 12” an eraser and some graphite pencils 6H or 7H, 2H,F, HB, 3B.

Parry Sound artist Marc De Groote has been officially invited to take part in one of Canada’s most prestigious art competitions.
