Studio 1234 Presents:

Drawings and Sketches

July 5 – July 18 Reception: Saturday, July 5 at 3 pm – 5 pm
Group show: Drawings and Sketches from Various Artists

The skill of drawing is so important to fine artists. They plan and architect paintings - the lights and darks, placement of objects, decisions during the drawing process could make the difference for the artist to create a mediocre piece to a masterpiece that is treasured by art lovers for generations, even centuries. Drawing helps the artist develop hand eye coordination as well as trains them to see what is important as well as unnecessary in works. It is also a very important and valuable contribution to art and is art. If you look at the works of the Masters like Michelangelo's presentation drawing of 'Pieta' and Da Vinci's 'Virgin' drawing their drawings and sketches are even now treasured and awe the masses hundreds of years after they first laid down their first strokes. Studio 1234 will be presenting current artists with their own drawings and sketches so that the public can view the works of current artists. Studio 1234 also hopes that this exhibit will aid in showing the current valuable contributions to an age old art.We hope you can attend the show.

Studio 1234 is located at 1234 College St., Toronto, ON

La compétence de dessiner est tellement importante aux excellents artistes.

Ils planifient et édifient les peintures, les lumières et l’obscurité, le placement des objets.

Néanmoins les décisions à prendre durant le processus du dessin peuvent faire la différence pour l’artiste en créant une pièce médiocre au chef œuvre.

Dessiner aide les artistes à coordonner main et œil aussi bien qui les entraînent à voir ce qui est important aussi bien qu’inutile dans les œuvres.
C’est aussi très important car la contribution à l’art est l’art en lui-même.

Si vous regardez les œuvres des maîtres comme le dessin représentatif de « Piéta » et « Virgin » de Da Vinci dessinant leurs dessins et esquises vous verrez la crainte révérencielle de centaines d’années après qu’ils aient déposés leurs premiers coups.

Studio 1234 présentera des artistes courants avec leurs propres dessins et esquises pour que le public puisse voir les œuvres de ses artistes.

Studio 1234 espère aussi que cette exposition aidera à montrer les valeurs de contributions actuelles à un vieil age de l’art.

Nous espérons que vous apprécierez cette présentation.
