Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this drawing class:

To draw is to express yourself in a special visual language. Learn how the language enables you to render on a flat page the spaces and volumes that you observe around you. As we work from the live model and other subjects, we consult historical examples to see how artists have used shape, plane, and rhythm. Awaken yourself to the sensation of seeing a whole page develop at once. Discover the pleasure of making your drawing move, and express yourself in this particular visual language.

Material list

  • An 18 x 24’ pad of Canson brand Sketch paper, (not newsprint and not anything made by Borden and Riley)
  • A Drawing clip board of the same size or a piece of foam core and two pad clips
  • A box of soft Vine charcoal, not compressed.
  • A genuine Chamois cloth, (deerskin), not a cotton imitation. A larger one from an auto parts store or Gracious Home is highly recommended. The art supply stores all seem to sell a 3 x 4” ones which are not really large enough.
  • Some tracing paper, 18 x 24” would be ideal.
  • Any other drawing materials you like to use such as pencils, pen and ink, red chalk, etc
