This course teaches several important principles of drawing. By studying casts of Renaissance and Classical sculpture under ideal lighting conditions, students learn to make accurate drawings and render them volumetrically to achieve a strong 3-dimensional effect. These principles of drawing can be applied to any subject drawn from observation.
This is the mandatory first course at the atelier.
Hours: Once per week, from 10:30am to 5:30pm, with 1-hour lunchbreak
Most students will complete this course in 4 weeks, although other scheduling options are possible.
Upon successful completion of this course, students may proceed to other courses in drawing or oil painting. Some students may be required to take another course in Cast Drawing before moving on to other subjects, at the instructor's discretion. |
