This hands-on course will introduce you to the fundamentals of drawing using clear, step-by-step instructions. Participants will learn essential skills—from how to hold a pencil to mastering shading techniques. Hatching, cross-hatching, and stippling will all be covered in detail. You'll be keeping your own sketchbook like a professional artist in no time!
This class focuses on core drawing principles, from structure to value. A variety of drawing techniques will be introduced throughout the workshop, beginning with an overview of essential materials and tools. You'll develop your own value scale and learn how to apply it to create accurately rendered objects.
