What:
Dive into the captivating world of stippling art, where we transform simple dots into stunning portraits!
Stippling is a unique technique that uses countless tiny dots to build up an image, creating beautiful gradients and depth. This method is especially effective for illustrating volume and form, without needing intricate textures.
In this hands-on workshop, we’ll guide you through a simple transfer technique to help you easily replicate an image of your pet (or any subject you choose) onto your page. No need to worry about drawing skills—our approach ensures that everyone can achieve fantastic results.
We’ll start by creating a value scale to understand how varying dot density affects light and shadow. Then, using this knowledge, you’ll bring your pet portrait to life with a series of meticulously placed dots.
This workshop is a fun and rewarding way to explore this detailed and expressive art form.
Join us and discover how dots can create delightful and detailed portraits that you’ll be proud to showcase!
for artists aged 8+
