Portrait Drawing
Lifelong Learning

portrait drawing class

Demystify the process of depicting a realistic likeness. Through careful observation, we'll focus on the fundamental mechanics of blocking in the head and face, using essential techniques and concepts of the picture plane, measuring, proportion, line, positive and negative space, value, volume, basic anatomy, and composition. You'll work primarily in charcoal, as well as pastel, launching on an adventure that may become a lifetime pursuit.
