Description
Drawing: Foundations Level 2
Instructor: BBAC Faculty
Learning how to draw gives students a foundation of understanding what you observe. This class will concentrate on creating realistic drawings from direct observation. Students will learn to apply fundamental drawing principles including proportion, perspective, line, value, and composition in practice exercises and finished drawings. Projects will include geometric solids, drapery, and still life.
