INTRO TO BASIC DRAWING
This course is for anyone who wants to learn how to draw and primarily for students who are keen on our full-time programs, but need to develop their drawing skills for their portfolio. The very basics of drawing will be covered: composition, perspective, blind contours and structural life drawing (using nude figure models).
Students will have sketchbook homework assignments and be expected to draw every day in order to develop their skills. This course serves as an ideal preparation for developing a portfolio for the full-time programs at VanArts.
