Structural Drawing

Adult Classes | Available

Every good drawing begins with strong construction. Students will learn how to use basic geometric shapes to build the foundation of a solid drawing. Media will include graphite pencils on drawing paper. Each student will be expected to spend the time working on drawing structure and technique, and developing his or her own drawings. The classroom setting will be light, focusing mainly on getting the most of each student’s individual abilities and talents.

  • Students will frequently be working from photos and will be expected to supply their own reference in these cases. In addition, students are encouraged to bring in any other materials they wish to use as reference or inspiration.

    Please bring at least one printed reference photo to the first class.
