Zoom Workshop: Introduction to Basic Drawing Techniques
May 11, 2021 @ 4:00 pm - 6:00 pm
An event every week that begins at 4:00 pm on Tuesday, repeating until June 9, 2021

This five week course is an introduction to basic drawing techniques and visual concepts, with a focus on translation of a three-dimensional form to a two-dimensional surface. Fundamental issues of drawing will also be introduced, (line, value, space, and composition). Objective, non-objective and intuitive approaches are covered as we explore mediums ranging from charcoal to pen and ink. Material list available upon registration.
