Drawing for Beginners – 4 Weeks

September 7 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm

$110

Four part drawing class for beginners (or those who have not drawn in a long time)

Each week we will build foundational drawing skills while learning best practices for tools and materials. Using graphite and charcoal, students will learn how to use lines, shading and create volume and depth. Part of the class will be spent working on a full drawing using the techniques as they are learned.

  • Sept 7- Papers, pencils and charcoal intro. How to fit the right tool to the job.
  • Sept 14 – Shading using hatching and blending. Understand values.
  • Sept 21 – Adding texture and detail. How much is too much.
  • Sept 28 – How to add depth, and highlights.

P lease bring an 8.5×11 black and white print of something simple you would like to draw. Suggestions: an object, something from nature, an animal. Pick something you care about or that interests you. We’ll be working on the drawing of this print each week.

I keep the class small so you get as much out of the class as possible. Ages 12 and up.
