Course Description
Overview
Essential, Pure, Minimalistic...
Are you ready to explore a new way of drawing?
Today I'm here to show you how you can start one line drawing!
We'll explore this technique by using nature as a reference and I'll guide you through 4 steps that will take you from a complex image, your reference photo, to a single line drawing.
One line drawing is not just about a trend but it's a great way to boost your imagination and learn a new drawing skill!
In this course you will learn how to:
- find a reference photo
- make a basic sketch from a complex image
- draw anything with one line
- create delicate and pastel colors to add to your illustration
Also, I'll give you some creative ideas you can use as inspiration for your class project! We'll make a bookmark, an art journal page, and simple illustrations you can frame.
If it's your first time making a one-line drawing, no worries because this class is totally beginner-friendly and you'll find many exercises that will get you started and feel comfortable drawing continuously.
