Cory Card, exhibition manager at View, will instruct a five-week Self-Portrait Series in Charcoal class at the arts center on Wednesdays evenings.
The classes will be held from 7 to 9 p.m. and run from February 5 through March 5th.
Card, who has a Bachelor and Master of Fine Arts from Rochester Institute of Technology, has taught drawing and design at the university level.
The series will focus on learning to accurately depict the proportions and anatomy of the face, while simultaneously exploring self-portraiture and charcoal in an expressive manner.
Materials necessary for the class are vine charcoal (soft), compress charcoal, charcoal pencils (one soft, one medium, one hard), white plastic eraser, one peel-off or click-style stick eraser, one 20-inch by 24-inch newprint pad, one piece of 30-inch by 40-inch Arches Cover Stock or Rieves BFK paper.
The fee for the class is $75 or $50 for View members. Space is limited and pre-registration for each workshop is required.
