Leaf contour drawing workshop offered Susan O’Malley will lead a leaf contour drawing workshops from 10 a.m.-noon and 1-3 p.m. on Sept. 9 at the Society for Kona’s Education and Art in Honaunau. Contour drawing is an artistic technique in which the artist uses only lines to sketch the outline of an object. Students begin by tracing the outline of a lau’ae leaf and trace over the pencil lines yet again with a fine-tipped black marker, then partially color their leaves, spores and veins with crayons. These crayon markings will resist the water color washes painted on the leaf’s interior. After the watercolors on the leaf’s interior have dried, a contrasting watercolor wash background will complete their masterpiece. Tuition is $25 for nonmembers with an early bird discount offered through Sept. 5 and $20 for SKEA members. All materials are included.
