Participants will learn how to draw self-portraits and a portrait of fellow workshop participants, or work on a unique animal mascot as they explore and discover their facial features through touch or sight. They will learn forms of mark-making using pastels and charcoal.
Born with visual impairment, painter Kok Choon Choo fell in love with drawing and painting when he was a child. Choon has been painting for over a decade, exploring human portraits and character design. His images are often provocative and explore multi-faceted aspects of our human psyche. A highly skilled and versatile painter, he is inspired by German expressionism and Japanese Manga. The process invites participants to develop unique approaches to materials and their aesthetics.
