Illustration workshop with Antonio Bonanno

December 2018
On Friday 30 November 2018, we offered Fuori Tempo a free Indian ink illustration workshop with Catanese artist Antonio Bonanno, who collaborated with us on the venue's new layout.

WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION

In addition to outlining contours, lines can also be used to render chiaroscuro (light and shadow) values in a drawing. This can be achieved through hatching.

What is hatching?

It is one of the basic drawing techniques that is not based on a random drawing of strokes, but in a precise operation that consists of parallel strokes to each other, which then intersect, in different directions, in a regular manner.

Themes addressed:

The line: first exercises with the various types of pen - Various exercises will be carried out for the correct execution of the technique and correct use of the tools to achieve it.

Drawing modes: parallel hatching / cross-hatching / modelled / graduated / decorative. Grayscale colour ratio exercises. Basic chiaroscuro exercises. 

Here are some shots of the beautiful afternoon spent with Antonio Bonanno.
