Drawing Classes and Workshop Descriptions
| Drawing For Beginners - 4 week class | ||
"To see we must forget the name of the thing we are looking at." Claude Monet Drawing is the foundation for all other forms of painting. The axiom “Your finished piece is only as good as your original drawing.” can be intimidating yet is true. Becoming comfortable and confident in your drawing skills can improve your work dramatically. In this class Laura focuses on teaching you to draw what your eyes actually see rather than what your mind tells you that you should be drawing. She helps you to recognize and break down complex subjects into key components. Identifying these shapes and their relationships helps with realistic reproduction. Working from real life will increase your understanding of how the light source affects your subject. Laura will also touch on selecting the right tools and techniques for different subjects to increase your comfort level. Class size is limited to 8 students to be certain that everyone receives attention. Once you have completed your registration you will be provided with materials lists and templates. Be certain to register early so you can reserve your space and come to class prepared. Contact the instructor prior to class for more session information and a materials list. laura@lauradicus.com.
