Pencil Portraits | Learn to Draw or Draw Better
ABOUT THE CLASS
Improve your drawing skills or learn to draw by drawing portraits in this six week class. Drawing any part of the human figure will increase progress toward an exact and synthetic knowledge of form. The articulation of facial details and negative spaces therein must be true and this trains the student/artist in a real sense of form by following the exquisite and subtle lines of the most perfect thing in nature.
We’ll explore gesture, anatomy, balance and composition all the while applying these principles to drawing from photographs, masterpieces, and possibly a live model.
This class promises to be exciting for beginning and more seasoned artists alike.
