Introduction to Drawing

Main Building • 5256 Magazine Street New OrleansLA  70115 Organized by New Orleans Academy of Fine Arts

About this event

The course has two primary objectives: first, to embellish the student’s disciplining of the hand to work in concert with the eye through techniques, devices, and tools. Second, the course should attune the student to how these aspects of drawing might be utilized in visually conveying specific concerns. Through each practice, we will develop a growing understanding of spatial relationships to develop visual and material language for two-dimensional space. MEASURABLE OUTCOMES: Upon successful completion of this course, students will: - Develop working habits and how to manage time. - Learn to draw with more confidence and skill. - Strengthen their observational skills. - Understand accuracy of drawn relationships (line, scale, shape, volume, value, texture, etc.) - Learning about values and linear perspectives. - Learn to prioritize and utilize different ways of drawing for personal outcomes / effects. Introduce artists: Since learning to draw requires learning how to see, looking at accomplished artists’ renderings throughout history is an important discipline to maintain. In the beginning of every practice, I will give a short presentation about the practice of the day and introduce some new artists related to the class practice.
