Course Description

Overview

Description Learn how to draw figures using classical techniques for rendering from live models! With Patricia Watwood’s guidance, you’ll progress from a simple block-in sketch to a gestural drawing to a polished piece with depth and dimension. Learn how to set up and light a live model, and how to use graphite pencil and simple angles to create an accurate outline for any figure. Add lifelike energy as you incorporate gestural lines, then carve out the form with hatching, shading and highlighting techniques. As a bonus, Patricia will show you how to create custom toned papers to add a unique touch to your work.
