This class is taught in English.

Students will practice sketching three-dimensional, realistic or fantastical landscapes and backgrounds.  We'll practice skills such as perspective, overlapping, creating forms and textures, architectural drawing, and strategies for drawing various types of scenery.  We'll also practice techniques to help make the scene look unified, and create emphasis on the focal points. 

I've been teaching students to draw realistically for over fifteen years!  My goal is to give my students a good foundation of techniques that they'll feel comfortable using on their own-- especially when it comes to applying their own creativity to their work.  I always ask myself what I would have wanted from an art class when I was a kid, and use that to inspire my class offerings.  This class is definitely inspired by my love of fantasy, and my desire to create encompassing visual worlds for the characters I loved.
