Session Recording: Exploring Line Weight

Find a recording of a zoom session exploring line weight and how we can use it to improve drawing outcomes for teachers & learners.

In this 30 minute session designed to give you a practical and hands-on introduction to an exercise or approach, the AccessArt team shows you how you can improve drawing outcomes by exploring the weight of a line. Have a go at the exercise using some paper and pens with different nib thicknesses.

The video below is available to full AccessArt members. Please login to access the video.
