Dominique Millar
Resume
An experience tutor, Dominique Millar has for many years taught the fundamentals of proportion, perspective and tonal / colour values, from antique casts, still life objects and the life model. In conjunction with life drawing, he also imparts a thorough knowledge of human anatomy at both a fundamental and more advanced level.
"My aim in teaching is for students to thoroughly understand the language of art in terms that are as creatively inventive, as they are empirical and conceptual. In this I perhaps deviate from my four years of training at the Julian Ashton Art School in regarding sensual bodily action and dynamic compositional narrative, as essential components to a drawing practice, rather than simply a ‘dry’ ability for rendering the static life model or object. "
Dominique studied at the Julian Ashton Art School and the National Art School and has a BA (History Major) from the University of Sydney, as well as a Master of Art Curatorship. He is currently studying for his masters.
He has been a finalist over two consecutive years, in both the Archibald Prize and Salon des Refusés and has exhibited at both Artarmon Gallery and CK Gallery in Newtown.
