About Cees Sliedrecht
Cees was born in The Netherlands and studied fine arts at academies in The Hague and Rotterdam. He is well known for his excellent drawing skills and works in various media such as watercolours, acrylics, pastels, graphite, and ink. He interprets images around him, never copying or duplicating but rather creating different narratives of life around him. In his work, Cees shows a unique blend of energy, life, light, movement, texture, rhythm, and emotion.
During the two day workshop, students will learn and practice observing nature and manmade constructions and present images on paper in traditional and abstracting styles and methods. Drawing techniques will be taught in both internal and external environments. Perspective drawing, applying texture, toning, composition, balance, shape, line work and colour, and use of brush, pen, and pencil are all part of the mix.
This will be a weekend of learning, applying, having fun, making friends, and enjoying the beautiful town of Kingaroy and its environment. All skill levels are welcome.
