Class Experience

During this class, students will learn how to draw the human face. We will discuss the best drawing tools, how different tools affect the outcome of a drawing, how to create a proportionally correct face that looks realistic. 
--The class will also include an interactive drawing warm-up drawing game for students as well.
--We will discuss shading and how to create eyes, lips and noses as a foundation for a more advance drawing. This class will not just be about learning how to create the parts of the face but how to start a drawing in the right way and how the steps you take to create each facial feature impacts how other parts of the human head are drawn such as the hair, ears and neck. 
--Students will be able to begin exploring more of the mathematical concept of proportion as they develop their drawn portrait. They will end up with a foundation of learning about drawing techniques that they will be able to use to advance further in their drawing skills. 
--As the teacher, I will guide the students through the process of selecting their supplies, learning the basics of drawing a three (3) dimensional form, setting up their drawing to create a proportional correct face through modeling and describing what I am doing. 
--The materials section below will include everything that is needed for this class.
