Class experience
Beginner Level
There are MANY Skill Drills (worksheets) to print and use in this class. PLEASE have access to a printer. Students will learn by watching video demonstrations and will also create in real-time, under the guidance of the instructor to execute a short drill in a limited amount of time. PDF handouts & worksheets support the lessons. Our communication happens live through video meetings and through messages sent via Outscool's classroom. Our live class time will be spent on demonstrations,...
This class is about shading and contrast, observation and gaining better control over our fine motor skills. We learn about the importance of observing how light and shadow increase the effects of realism in drawings -- even when the subject matter is something of "fantasy" art. Students will learn more about how our fine motor skills are developed with practice. We will emphasize the importance of pencil control and what the numbers of artist pencils mean -- what is a 4H pencil vs what is a 6B pencil and what does that mean for your drawing? Why is is best to NOT use your finger to blend on your paper? There are MANY Skill Drills (worksheets) to print and use in this class. PLEASE have access to a printer.
Homework Offered
Each session will have a "Skill Drill" that is encouraged to be completed before the next session. Each week the student will complete a one page worksheet that requires about 20-30 minutes of practice in the techniques of shading.0 - 1 hours per week outside of class
