102 Drawing from the Masters – ONLINE

Course Overview:

Strengthen your skills, improve your focus, and explore new techniques by challenging yourself to draw from the masters. Discover their economy of line and vocabulary of form by absorbing their tips and tricks into your own work. Each day we will draw from carefully selected high-quality past and present master artist drawings. We will focus on how to construct figures and portraits, with special attention given to each of the five main features. Beginners are encouraged to work in pencil or charcoal, while those with more experience may work in other mediums. All levels are welcome, as instruction and demonstrations are given on an individual and group basis.
