Attendees will learn the basics of human head anatomy and sighting and measuring technique through a series of quick and simple drawing exercises. These techniques will be combined to generate a long-term drawing while observing a model in-studio using the student's choice of either graphite or charcoal.
No drawing experience is required! This workshop is perfect for beginning artists and will also be beneficial for those who work at an intermediate level.
All supplies will be provided. Students may bring their own supplies if they wish, but this is not necessary.
