Description

Dear Student!

In this class, you will learn to draw and shade everyday objects from scratch. I will guide you from sketching to finishing touches in these highly detailed, step-by-step, narrated tutorials. I will share a lot of tips and tricks with you that will become part of your drawing practice so that you can apply them to your future drawings. You will learn how to sketch, how to shade, how to blend pencils, and how to create photorealistic textures.

You will learn the basics of drawing the eyes ideal proportions without using a model or reference photos. You will learn to draw a landscape, still life objects, and many more. Using the techniques and exercises from this course, you'll be able to give your drawings a very realistic appearance, to see your subjects as basic shapes, how to place your subject on your paper with simple angles, and how to shade to make your drawing look less flat. I'll share measuring tricks that will help you draw accurately and I'll demonstrate my unique approach to applying the techniques in each example.


Enroll in the class and let's draw!
