Good also for those who are looking to begin to explore drawing!
In this workshop you will learn to see and draw the human form in shapes as well as a whole. Part of the process will be learning how to draw folds and drapery on the figure. We will be looking at drawings from artists of various time periods and incorporating them into our work. There will be short and long poses (1-20mins). Lecture, methods and techniques introduced in this workshop are geared toward building and developing a fearless approach to creating art in any medium. Materials list given upon registration.
