To learn how to draw classical forms using the Charles Bargue drawing class. The practice of copying master drawings improves the overall quality of art techniques.
Welcome! I'm so excited that you joined this class! Would you please introduce yourself to me and the other learners? And please share any background or questions you have in this topic area. If you already have graphite drawing pencils, erasers, and drawing paper you like to use please feel free to use those instead of what I have suggested in the supply list. I really like using any pencils with an "H" in the name on the label, they tend to be lighter graphite pencils for better light sketching, then build the layers up with F, HB and other B pencils. The supply list is a guide for you to follow in case you want to know what kind of materials I like to use. I am so excited to have you all in class and I look forward to seeing you soon! :) Thanks! - Miss Meghan 1.

This class includes using classical drawing plates, from the Charles Bargue Drawing Course. The source of the drawings are both from classical antiquity, sculptures and life drawings by Charles Bargue. The class is not recommended for younger students, due to some classical figures, if that is too sensitive (containing classical sculptural nudity) for younger artists.
