Studying the philosophies of Cubism and contemporary illustration, we will focus on giving our drawn figures expression. Learn how exaggerated and distorted gesture drawings can give your subject depth and meaning, and explore how you can use context and shape to change the composition of your drawings.

  • Previous drawing experience is required.
  • Please bring tracing paper (11” x 14” or larger), drawing paper (11” x 14” or larger), a 4B General’s flat sketch pencil, plus a range of standard pencils, and any other dry media of your liking.
