Introduction to Drawing: Seeing and Sketching from Life
Introduction to Drawing: Seeing and Sketching from Life
Students will strengthen their drawing skills by learning to see like an artist. Working from real-life objects and props, they'll practice essential techniques such as observation, shading, proportion, and perspective. Each session combines guided drawing lessons with independent sketching time, allowing students to develop both confidence and personal style. Through step-by-step instruction, the class focuses on building a strong foundation in naturalistic drawing—helping students understand how to translate what they see into expressive, lifelike artwork.
