DRAWING
CLASSES Over the course of eight weeks of classes, I will help each student develop drawing abilities and teach them new ways to actually see what they are drawing. Beginning and advanced levels of drawing are taught. For beginners, proportion, volume, space, markmaking, and shading will be covered. I believe in practice and learning through doing. While some classtime will be devoted to the basics of painting, the main focus of the classes is to allow the student to practice painting and develop and use the lessons learned to build their own confidence and abilities. It is my desire, after eight weeks of classes, to give the student the tools they need to continue to paint on their own. Many of my students have a love of art and painting that is undeveloped or lacking in the knowledge of how to achieve their goals. I believe its my role as the instructor to get over bad habits, lack of knowledge and allow the student to bring their talents to their full potential.
Various
materials and drawing sizes will be used in the class. The stress of
drawing will focus on pencils and charcoal, although other
materials
may be introduced over the class sessions depending on experience and
interest. Class schedules are fairly flexible, with advance notice, classes can be rescheduled during the week or in case of vacations or other issues, a week can be skipped without losing your classtime. I just ask that you not abuse this and notify me as early as possible if you won't be able to attend an art lesson. ABOUT MICHAEL
