Martin Franco

Today we'll work with soft pastels, blending colors and seeing what posibilities this material offers us. Enjoy!

Drawing classes ONLINE

These are drawing classes related to some topic or material*, I explain, show examples then you draw after some reference image I share on screen. (*graphite, colored pencils, soft or oil pastels, charcoal, markers, ballpoint pens, and more!)

Painting Classes

Painting classes are usually related to using paint, gouache, acrylics, watercolors, oil paint. Every class is different. These are not pre-recorded sessions.

In this workshop we will discover some of the possible ways we can apply these soft (or hard) pastels on a paper. For this, I'll make a short demonstration on my camera, then we will see some examples. Afterwards, I will share some reference images so that you choose one to work from and do your own version.It's not necessary to have all sort of colors, with just a few it will be ok this time. So, you need to have some soft pastels (the ones that are similar to chalk -not the oil ones- in sticks or pencils, a piece of cloth/cotton fabric to clean, some tissue/towel paper, kneaded eraser, a couple of sheets of paper with some tooth/texture, can be toned/coloured paper. Looking forward to seeing you!Note: This class is not pre-recorded. These classes contents are not repeated neither are the reference images we draw from, even though the subject of the class may bear the same name.<a href="https://dibujofranco.blogspot.com" title="https://dibujofranco.blogspot.com" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">In case you cannot get your ticket, please contact me dibujofranco@gmail.com</a>- --------------------------------------------WAYS TO DRAW and Paint are a series of art classes online, especially for beginners and anyone who wants to learn different ways of drawing and painting, since there isn't only one, as there isn't only one way to do things in life. In each class we will also be experimenting with different media: (i.e. graphite, colored pencils , pastels, charcoal, ball and fountain pens, markers, gouache, acrylics, etc.)The classes are in English but some Spanish language can be spoken.To see some of my artworks, you can visit my social media <a href="https://linktr.ee/dibujofranco" title="https://linktr.ee/dibujofranco" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://linktr.ee/dibujofranco</a>

Agenda

I'm a visual arts teacher (painting-drawing and print making) in Argentina. I´'ve been teaching since 2006, drawing, painting and engraving classes as well as hundreds of life drawing classes at big Cultural Centers and different private studios including mine. Since 2020 I've been teaching mostly online though I also continue with Life Drawing classes in person. English is my second language; I speak Spanish where I live. My main goal is that you enjoy drawing and painting during the sessions, and obviously that you learn something new each time!
