Description

Welcome to our comprehensive drawing course “Masterclass of Drawing Loomis and Bargue: Facial Features and Figure structures”, based on the classical art drawings of old masters, focusing on Charles Bargue Techniques and Drawings.

Once you have learned these features perfectly, the course will move onto hand, arm, and full-body sketching and drawing, and then how to apply certain hatching and shading techniques. Finally, after completing all the lessons and assignments, you will learn how to put everything together and create a full head drawing with facial features.
