This four-week drawing course builds upon the foundational skills introduced in Drawing I while helping students develop greater accuracy, confidence, and sophistication in their work. Through guided demonstrations, observational exercises, and longer drawings, students will expand their understanding of proportion, space, value, composition, and mark-making while learning to work with more complex subjects and create stronger, more resolved drawings.
Weekly Course Outline
- Week 1: Seeing Relationships — Proportion, Shape & Space
Strengthen proportion and measuring skills while working with more complex arrangements of objects. Explore angles, overlapping forms, and positive and negative space to create accurate, unified drawings. - Week 2: Creating Depth — Perspective & Spatial Relationships
Learn practical ways to create convincing depth and space through perspective, overlapping, scale, placement, and spatial relationships. - Week 3: Light, Value & Surface
Build upon basic value skills by exploring more complex light and shadow, contrast, and mark-making to create depth, form, and texture. - Week 4: Composition & the Finished Drawing
Bring the skills from Drawing I and II together in a more developed observational drawing while exploring composition, focal point, value organization, and expressive mark-making.
SKILL LEVEL:
This class is designed for students who have completed Drawing I or have had previous basic drawing instruction and would like to continue developing their observational drawing skills.
