Description

This is the second set of instructional videos focused on drawing from professional artist Sean-Willam Dawson!

This course is the second in a series that breaks down the most fundamental of all art techniques…DRAWING!! It is designed to build on to the skills and techniques taught in the first series, OR, if you already have some previous artistic skills and abilities, you can hop right in and draw along!!

As a professional artist and art educator, I’ve taught over 30000 students how to create 3D effects with drawing for 25 years…. WITH INCREDIBLE SUCCESS!! And now you will be able to work with me at your own pace and schedule, learning the secret art techniques of a pro artist with ease.

Drawing and Shading with Ease

-learn how to build on the techniques and skills taught in the first series

-build upon artistic skills you may already have

-learn from a professional artist

-step-by-step

-students and TEACHERS can easily follow along

-drawings are challenging, but not complicated

- I make things fun and entertaining

Young artists AND non- artists can do this

For over 25 years I have been a practicing professional artist. I have exhibited throughout North America and continue to do so.

Throughout those 25+ years I simultaneously maintained an art educator role in both the public and private sector. For 15 of those years I ran my own ‘artist in the classroom’ business where I would (on average) reach 3000 students a year, teaching them numerous art techniques and theories.

Because of the volume of students I would educate within a year, I developed an understanding of what and how to teach the most effective art techniques in the most obtainable and comprehensive manner, for students aged 9 to 99.

This course builds on the basic shading skills that students can use effectively in any style of drawing.

You will learn the simple yet effective techniques that help achieve the ‘illusion of depth’ in drawing, in a easy-to-follow, exciting and fun manner.

This course is a great intermediate guide in understanding the tools, techniques, and approaches to drawing that you can have fun with.

Chances are you will walk away with work that you are amazed that you created yourself.
