The Graphite Toolkit/Foundations
6 week intensive online class designed to change the way you see. This is the exact information that will help draw out your style, which is your personal way of perceiving the world.
This is not a class about drawing. It’s about helping you understand experientially what brings an object to life and how you communicate what you see to your intended audience. Your drawing will improve as you supplement your natural ability with the mastery of the basics; pencil, eraser and blender. Everything else is practice – this will build your unique foundation of expression.
Must be willing to start at the beginning of things, and ideally, already be into your artistic journey. This is not a beginning drawing class. It’s a re-frame with new habits and concepts designed to challenge and expand your artmaking.
