• Figure drawing in three parts

Class Description:

This is a beginner’s course in drawing designed for those with little or no artistic training.

In this class students will take part in lectures, demonstrations, and be guided in various projects focusing on topics such as value judgment, turning form, creating depth, accurate proportion, and angular construction as students progress from fundamental drawing to drawing a volumetric still life. The material will be presented sequentially through a series of lessons that will train the beginning student to “see” and translate the world around them. Group discussion and individual support is also deeply embedded in the class structure. The class will be instructed by utilizing various technologies, including Zoom, live virtual demos, and real time virtual assistance on student projects, chat and email, among others.
