Whether you are picking up a pencil for the very first time or you are an experienced 3D artist looking to translate your tactile skills onto a two-dimensional surface, this 4-week intensive will give you the tools to see and draw with absolute confidence.

Drawing is a learned skill, not an innate talent. Over our 8 hours together in an intimate, semi-private studio setting, you will learn to quiet your analytical mind and train your eye to see shapes, relationships, and values accurately. We will move step-by-step through professional techniques, covering everything from proper pencil mechanics and measuring with a scale tool, to shading, blending, and pulling out crisp highlights.

What You Will Learn:

  • The 3-D Drawing Method: How to measure accurately from life and build solid structures.

  • Value & Light Logic: How to shade using a 1-to-9 value scale to make your drawings pop off the page.

  • Subtractive Drawing: How to use precision erasers to sculpt light and build beautiful surface textures.
