As artists we know that the fundamental skill underlying all the visual arts is drawing. To achieve successful rendering, one must develop proficiency in three key areas; perception, understanding, and craft – each supporting each other like legs of a stool. This class will cover the essential principles needed to achieve successful drawings and a better understanding of the visual world.

Core drawing is a 10 week class that is accessible to pure beginners looking to begin their journey into visual arts with a solid foundation, and yet provide value to those with some experience looking to brush up before moving into more advanced classes. Each student will gain an understanding of the core concepts, materials and techniques used in observational drawing, emboldening them to successfully pursue their artistic journey.
