Most Recent Lessons:
20. Still Life 1 – Foundations A +
JAN 27 – 31 • In this 2-week Lesson, students will learn the process of still life setup, and how to create thumbnail sketches for working on composition. This week is spent mostly drawing and getting the canvas board ready. Next week is all about the painting.
19. The Secret Plate – Foundations A +
Jan 20 – 24 • Students will learn how cylinders, one of the 3 most basic 3D forms, is drawn accurately. They’ll see that even famous old masters struggled with it, while doing an exercise that helps them understand and apply a new way of looking at it. The second half of the lesson is spent filling sketchbook pages with practice drawings they get to choose reference for: from cartoons to realism, all using cylindrical objects.
18. Finish work and watercolor – Foundations A +
JAN 30 – FEB 3 • Students have time to finish previous projects from the last month, and can then either have artists’ choice, or to enjoy an easy drawing of architecture shapes that don’t involve perspective – using photo reference. A review or intro to watercolor techniques is available.
