local artists turned out to Kingaroy&#8217;s 1913 Council Chambers over the weekend to learn how to improve their drawing skills.<\/p>\n<p>They were attending a workshop organised by the Kingaroy Arts Team, the newly formed arts group that now operates the Kingaroy Art Gallery.<\/p>\n<p>Noel Miller, a highly respected Brisbane artist whose acrylic and pastel artworks were exhibited in the gallery last month, tutored the group.<\/p>\n<p>In his &#8220;Drawing The Best Out Of Your Brain&#8221; workshop, Noel showed attendees how to work with charcoal, pencils and pastels to explore the potential of different drawing media and see where they might personally take it.<\/p>\n<p>A series of exercises were undertaken to expand the skill of the pupils, no matter what their present level of expertise.<\/p>\n<p>Noel encouraged the students to develop their own individual style, and stressed the importance of capturing emotion in their work.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The weekend workshop was the second he has held in the region.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>His first workshop, in September, covered acrylic landscapes and included colour theory and the use of textures in the work.<\/p>\n<p>Students were encouraged to improve their current style or even to be brave enough to move towards another style.<\/p>\n<p>Both workshops, which were made possible by an RADF grant, were well attended and greatly appreciated by those who took part.<\/p>\n<p>Everyone went away with new ideas and great enthusiasm to put their new-found skills to work.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_123734\"
