Great drawing requires not only practice, focus, and hand-eye coordination, but the same sort of physical self awareness as playing the violin, or shooting baskets.
This course will challenge you to take your drawing to the next level, whatever your current skill and experience.
Subjects covered include, but not limited to:
Gesture
Movement
Rhythm
Counterpoint
Observing and Modeling Forms
Light and Shadow
Values
Transitions
Contour Continuation
Design
Composition
Anatomy
Finding Your Graphic Voice
Being Present in the Drawing
Drawing Lessons from the Renaissance Masters
Each class will focus on several, specific, related topics. Because of the interrelatedness of the drawing concepts covered, you can expect many of the subjects listed to be talked about in every class, if only briefly. Throughout the course anatomy will be discussed whenever relevant, but will not be the sole focus of any of the classes in this series.
Classes will begin with short warm-up poses followed by a lecture demonstration. The last two hours of the evening will typically consist of longer poses. There will be an abundance of one on one instruction tailored to each individual student's needs.
Tuesday nights from 6:30 to 9:30 - Beginning September 25th
