A Quick Discription for the Class:

This drawing session will be open to all from beginner to the more advanced skill level. We will start right on time, so please come early to set up your work area and art supplies.

Are you interested in…
• Careful rendering of various subject matter drawn from direct observation!!!
• Value, focusing deep contrast into shadows and gentle gradations.
• Close attention to mundane or ordinary things transformed into carefully rendered drawings.
• Using various spatial systems such as linear perspective, illusion of three-dimensional space, aerial views and other ways of creating/organizing space.

I encourage use of a variety of materials and explore the relationship between the media and process; there will be demonstrations of material, techniques, conceptual strategy and the investigation in relation to mixed media with the aid of one or two bound models for you to draw from and focus on skills such as composition, light and dark, and technical mastery of drawing the human form.
