Drawing Masterclass – The Beginner Level Drawing Skills

Requirements

• You will need drawing materials – pencils and paper (sketchbook/set of pencils), eraser, sharpener, micron pen (optional)
• Watch the Supplies video (Free Preview) for my recommendations

As a professional art teacher with a Master’s Degree in Art Education, in the last 10 years I watched people form all age categories learn drawing. In the last year I was researching the perfect methodology to teach a very beginner art fundamentals and I combined all these experiences and also the feedback from my first drawing course to create a comprehensive Masterclass.

It has 3 levels: The Beginner Levels Skills, The Intermediate Level Skills and The Advanced Level Skills.

In “The Beginner Level Skills” our focus is to explore your inner symbol set, roots of your style, your relationship to drawing and the ways you LOVE to draw, styles that you are most into and try to get the most out of it! We will start with as simple things as drawing lines and build it up to creating shapes and forms.

In this class you will learn:

• to draw lines with different properties, rhythm and weight
• to hold the pencil in a stable and comfortable way
• to create an artwork entirely from lines
• to draw basic geometric shapes in order to build up more complex shapes
• to create forms from shapes (sphere, cone, cube)
• to apply values
• to shade with the “Reverse Shading Method”
• to create the illusion of space in your artworks by applying linear perspective
• to draw the different parts of the face
• to draw basic facial proportions
• to let out your personal symbol set and explore how you like to draw
• to draw with confidence
• different areas of some visual industries where you can apply your beginner level skills

The point of this level is to prepare you for the intermediate level skills, to give you a push to draw regularly and believe in yourself and your art!

The class is ideal for very beginners, with zero experience with drawing. If you are the person whose automatic reply to the question “Can you draw xzy?” is an automatic NO (even when playing Activity), YOU ARE IN THE RIGHT PLACE:)

Even if you are already painting with different kinds of mediums, like watercolors, acrylics of digital, but you are questioning whether you need to learn drawing in order to do your craft, THIS MIGHT BE THE COURSE FOR YOU!

If you are ready to learn what you always wished for but never had courage or procrastinated over it, this is the time to ENROLL!

Who this course is for:

• Absolute beginners in drawing
• Beginner artists who are already painting (f.e. with watercolors) but don’t know how to draw
• Who think they can never learn how to draw/shade, but would want to
