Most Importantly please know this is a slow method of observation and application. Its not a Tonal Progression process but developing the form from the endings into the rounding pending on the orientation of form to the light source.
Second my teaching style is such that I’m hands on and will guide you step by step through the process of creating a work of art from life

Course Description

Course Description:

Students will have the opportunity to draw in the cast room from several historical casts placed in separate stations for each student.

The process is drawing accurately the proportion, structure & how to correctly block in the outside graphic shape. The next step is to develop the contour of the outside shape. Drawing carefully the high points of each structure as the forms overlap, transition and suture. Finally we will have the opportunity to model the form, drawing careful the tonal transitions of the the light on the natural organic forms. Keeping in mind the light orientation on each structure the study and science of light on the form.

Most Importantly please know this is a slow method of observation and application. Second my teaching style is such that I’m hands on and will guide you step by step through the process of creating a work of art from life.

• We will discuss the Principles of Light and zones• Draw an accurate drawing with proportions and angle of light on Form
• How light rakes over the form to create the illusion of turning form.
• We will discuss fanning of the light and Interlocking forms.
• The course will begin with a block in then methodically and meticulously develop to form drawing
• This process and method does not lend drawing from imagination rather drawing comparatively the cast

Testimonials:

“I also wanted to share with you that I used the concept of reference points in the lessons that I taught to my beginning art students, most of whom were certain that they had never drawn before and doubted they could ever draw. In one week, everyone was drawing beautifully from observation! I made the connection to looking at constellations… stars. I had them just draw constellations like the “Big Dipper” and others from projections on a screen and we could just focus on seeing relationships and proportions and measuring of relative distances between points and alignments. They got it! then when we gradually moved over to “filling in the details of images”, the kids had the skills to find their way. Thank you!!! Your gift of teaching me has come through to 30 young people!” Liz.
