Join Mariè Stander on 11 and 12 April for an in-depth two-day portrait workshop using the tactile medium, charcoal.

Mariè is known for creating portraits with her hands and fingers, her main focus being tonal contrast that creates detail.

Over the course of this two-day workshop, guests will be introduced to the finer art of portraiture, focusing on elements like observation and intuitive drawing. You will be working from a live model and visual imagery, working with charcoal and introducing an element of colour with soft pastel.

Mariè will guide the guests on a one-to-one basis, concentrating on their individual ‘drawing mark’ and working with their strengths and weaknesses in the creative process.

This workshop is suitable for all levels of expertise in portraiture.

Included in the workshop are all the necessary art materials, as well as a pastry break and lunch on both days.

The cost is R3,880 per person and tickets can be purchased online HERE.

Please note that refunds are only available for cancellations made up until 10 days before the event.
