Line Drawing

Line drawing is the foundation of all visual art. In this class, students will learn to confidently sketch and refine their drawings, ensuring proportion and accuracy while developing a strong sense of observation. The ability to translate what the eyes see onto paper is a fundamental skill that all great artists possess, and through guided instruction, students will gain the confidence to approach any subject matter with ease.

This course begins with the basic fundamentals of sketching, focusing on how to quickly and effectively capture the essence of a subject. Students will learn strategies and tools that help maintain correct proportions and relationships, eliminating common mistakes that often lead to frustration. With consistent practice, they will develop a disciplined approach to line drawing, refining each sketch into a precise and balanced composition.

Beyond technique, students will cultivate a new way to "see like an artist." Instead of focusing on isolated features or outlines, they will be trained to analyze the subject as a whole, breaking it down into fundamental shapes and establishing the framework for a well-structured drawing. By the end of this course, students will have developed the ability to sketch with clarity, precision, and artistic intention.
