Beginner Level
In this class the learners will understand how easy is drawing of a very attractive way. They will know how to build step by step the composition with regular pencils and add details to remind the beauty of the shapes, lines, circles, shading, center piece and background. I simplify the objects to clear shapes. This will be the main target of the class and will help the students to understand the steps of drawing. It will be helpful if students have a basic knowledge of drawing and proportions, but not required. The rest I can demonstrate in class and approach the level of the students individually. The scale of different pencils and their function will be part of the main drawing as well.
Learning Goals
Learning goals for students are to have the knowledge of a basic drawing and be able to create thier own drawings and finish them successfully.
