Art Media Classes:

DRAWING


---------------------------------------------------------------------------------Drawing: Back to the Essentials Level 1

This is a foundational class that teaches and then builds on “the essentials” of drawing: line, shape, texture, and value – plus composition, design, and stylistic expression through still-ife and through photographs. This class will include discussions that focus on developing your abilities in seeing. Great for the beginner or as a brush-up course.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- “Having just completed the ‘Back to Basics’ drawing class, I am so impressed that, finally, after 75 years, I feel that I can draw.  It was amazing to me when I had an aha! moment with “lines”.  I had never considered drawing to be simple as drawing lines, and the way you presented the sessions was extremely fulfilling to be able to produce something of my own rather quickly.  Drawing “lines” was the key, followed by values; thus I look at the world with a new eye geared toward line and value which will help tremendously in my painting.” -- Connie K.


“I learned new ideas about drawing and I was reminded about things I had forgotten. Shaqe was enthusiastic and passionate.”

-- Kyra W., watercolor artist & WSU alumni, drove 80 miles for each class

Drawing: Back to the Essentials Level 2

This class is the second level of Drawing: Back to the Essentials. We will build on the previous by diving more into design as the foundation, which then allows for better drawing ability. In this class the elements and principles will be taught with more complexity in order to gain better composition skills. You will gain more skill in drawing and a confidence in executing what you see. Focus will be on stillife, photographs and your imaginative skills.
