Register now for Portrait Drawing: The Human Head
Learn to draw heads in a relaxed, supportive atmosphere using concepts that can be applied to any subject. This class banishes myths and fears about drawing people by introducing concepts one by one, simplifying the human head into basic shapes and forms. In addition to understanding structure in both 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional terms, we learn techniques to capture character and gesture, working up to portraits that have both form and life. Working from master reproductions, photographs, each other, live models, and ourselves, you will learn to use the scribble, contour, core lines, relative points, negative space, adjacent shape, and light and shadow to build sculpturally convincing, abstractly satisfying and humanly expressive heads. As always there will be a strong art history component to the class as we refer to master works for hot tips and inspiration. Lots of demos and individual attention. No experience necessary.
