Since the Renaissance, Red Chalk has been used to create powerful, timeless drawings. Working on hand-toned paper, you will learn several methods of using this traditional media to create beautiful portraits. The fundamentals of portraiture, such as proper proportions, structure and basic anatomy of the human head will be discussed. This will help you gain confidence and skill to create several expressive portraits. This class will strengthen your drawing ability whether you are an absolute beginner or a more advanced student.
Working from the live model, you will develop a deep understanding of the human head. We will continue to examine proper proportions, structure and basic anatomy as well as use multiple drawing and painting techniques to represent the portrait. This class series will strengthen your ability and understanding of the human head whether you are an absolute beginner or an advanced student. This month’s class we have the opportunity to work from two models posing each night, therefore the class is limited to 14 students.
