While taking the Basics Drawing course prior to this is suggested, if you are confident enough in your basic observational drawing skills, you are most-welcome to attend!
$135 (includes $10 modeling fee)
During this intermediate level class, students will continue to build on their foundational drawing skills and vocabulary explored in the basic drawing class of observation, line, form, value, texture and spatial relationships and begin to focus on more advanced techniques. There will be a focus on making combinations of the visual elements and principles of design with various materials to create finished compositions that begin to show personal style and expression. One to two classes will involve the use of a model.
Students will need to bring the following supplies:
· Drawing pencils: Since we’re not going to be getting into minute details, no H pencils are necessary. Get a nice set of at least 3 pencils with the softer ‘lead’ (2B, 4B,6B,HB) along with a sharpener.
· Regular eraser: not allowed—forbidden to be used in the class. You’ll learn why. 😊
· Kneaded eraser: You’ll learn why this eraser is allowed.
· Vine Charcoal: a set with varying sizes and hardness.
· Charcoal pencils: One hard, one soft.
· Masking tape: cheapest you can get.
· Drawing pad: 18x24” in size is preferable. 14x17” is the smallest we will go. Strathmore pads are good ($15-25), especially newsprint, your best bet. No matter what kind you buy, it must have a medium to rough drawing surface (smooth paper will not hold charcoal).
· A hard backing surface to support your paper—at least 18x24” in size. You can use any flat board that size without buying a manufactured drawing board, but there is an Artist’s Loft drawing board that has a carrying handle and a clamp on top to hold the paper for only $20.
