ENROL NOW!
Drawing, or mark making is a basic form of human expression.
The Beyond the Line Series are video art classes for beginners, and intermediate practitioners who seek to refresh their skills, delivered online by Ian de Souza in the comfort of your own home or classroom. Each lesson in the series is presented in three to four videos that you can view online or download to your device and refer back to at any time.
Covered are the basic principals of drawing the figure and watercolour painting using simple and effective exercises in a workshop format with one-on-one demonstrations by Ian. You will be encouraged to see and think differently, to enjoy the creative process and how to apply these fundamental principles to everyday life around you regardless of your creative expression. Each lesson is presented as a video that can be viewed online or downloaded to your own device and referred to at any time.
"The aim of this series is to share with you the expertise and knowledge that I have acquired over the past forty years as a professional artist. The skill of drawing is a wonderful tool for change. Awareness of boundaries, perspective, balance and finding the essence are marvellous metaphors for everyday life"

Course 2: Watercolour in Isolation
$60 inc GST
To master watercolour painting takes a great deal of practice. In the early years of his career as an artist, Ian de Souza chose watercolour because it was the most difficult medium and also the most satisfying to master. One cannot go against water, one must go with it. The 'happy accidents' that spontaneously present with this medium sits well with the eastern philosophical thought that informs his arts practice today.
