Drawing is essential to representational painting. In this class, we’ll spend equal time drawing and painting, to develop our observation skills about proportion, perspective, creating 3D effects and creating compositional studies. Our subjects will include sceneries, figures, portraits, and objects. *Have your field sketches / photographs for reference material.
