What you'll learn in this beginner drawing class:

Drawing is where it all begins!

This course is ideal for beginner and intermediate-level students who seek a foundation in the fundamentals of drawing. Expert teachers guide students through the elements of art, including line, shape, shadow, value, tone, form and perspective, demonstrating and offering critiques of work in graphite, charcoal and more.

Working from direct observation, you'll learn to draw what you see, beginning with still lifes and progressing to portrait and figure drawing with a live model.

Question from joanna m.

Hello, I would like to learn illustration/drawing mostly figures easy pictures for a children's book I am writing. Do you think these classes would benefit me?

Answer from Christine C. Verified Student

No. This class focuses more on fine art type drawing (think still lifes of fruit and small objects) using pencil and charcoal. You won’t draw anything (or draw in styles) that would match a children’s book.

The instructor was lovely, she has a great passion for art but I felt she was too much of a perfectionist for a beginner class. I spent time making tiny changes to my drawings rather than focusing on completing the work. I don't think I completed a single drawing though it.

Zach was great and supportive.

FYI. There were only 6 classes (not 8 as listed here)

Eva is a very good instructor. She makes all the skills very clear and provides personalized advice while students are drawing. Great class!

Reviewed by Anton R. on 8/21/2019

I think I would have liked more instruction about actual drawing (techniques) and focusing on pencil.
