In this one-time drawing course, students will learn to sketch a realistic human face (portrait) of a woman (top of head to shoulders).

What will students learn?

1. Students will learn techniques for sketching a proportionate human face.
2. Students will learn techniques for shading, blending, and adding contrast.
3. Students will learn techniques for sketching realistic, long human hair.
4. Students will learn techniques for sketching different facial features (eyes, nose, mouth, etc.).

I will demonstrate each step for students and have students complete that step along with me.  My classroom is a calm, fun, and creative environment where discussion between teacher and students is encouraged.  I ask students questions throughout the lesson to check for student understanding.  Students may also interact with each other if they want to share what they have learned during class.  Students who enroll in this class should have basic drawing skills, like drawing and manipulating shapes with a pencil.  In this class, we practice more advanced techniques (sketching proportionately, sketching realistic human hair, etc.)  Students who enroll in this class should have drawing experience, but it is not required that they have prior portrait drawing experience.

If you do not see a scheduled time that works for you, please message me.  I am happy to try and accommodate your schedule with mine.
