Thursday 20th April, 10am – 12pm.

Artist W. Howard Brandenburg will guide this informative and stimulating workshop on making use of sketching techniques on scrolls to develop your own concepts for art, design, and problem solving. A series of playful and experimental drawing exercises will allow participants to explore mark-making, composition, and imagination. Participants will develop and hone their own unique drawing skills and a work of art.

Scrolls, grayscale marking tools, and some surprises will be provided. Bring your own concepts, objects of interest, or photographs which you will investigate and sketch during this two hour session. Feel free to bring additional art supplies that you might prefer, and a sense of exploration.

→ Suitable for ages 12 and over
→ 10 places available

About the Artist

W. Howard Brandenburg is an artist based in Wickliffe, a small township 50km south of Ararat.

Brandenburg is fascinated in what makes the human species so successful and what that success means for the balance of nature. His oil paintings often focus on environmental changes attributed to human activities.

As a child, Brandenburg grew up immersed in art with both his mother and grandmother working as professional artists in Taos, New Mexico, U.S.A. He went on to study art and aquatic ecology at the University of New Mexico, and has been a practising artist throughout his career.  In 2018, he relocated to Australia with his wife and two children.

Brandenburg has always identified the visual image as a profound form of communication and an invaluable way to perceive the world.
