DRAWING CLASS
This is a weekly, in-studio program introducing the fundamentals of line drawing.
Projects begin with a series of simple shape-copying exercises to sharpen the eye and practice disciplined mark making.
From here, studies progress to perspective and volume drawing to learn how to convincingly interpret three- dimensional objects onto a two-dimensional surface.
​
PAINTING CLASS
This is a weekly, in-studio program that familiarizes the student with the basic application techniques of oil painting, and a controlled approach to color mixing based on the Munsell Color System.
Projects focus on an exhaustive study of the three dimensions of color (hue, value, and chroma) through a series of simple, yet comprehensive exercises from life. Projects progress from monochromatic study to full color painting, and include volume study, cast painting, and still life.
