This course will offer our young artists a creative introduction to portrait drawing, allowing students to develop their observational skills and accuracy in drawing.
The course will inspire students to build on existing knowledge and techniques so they can create with confidence and take their creative ideas to the next level. The tutor will guide students through the fundamental elements of light, shadow, tone, form, perspective and composition of the human body and face particularly. Mark making in several mediums including pencil, pen, and chalks will be used enabling students to explore a variety of different drawing techniques.
Students will build on knowledge to achieve real progress with drawings skills. Whatever students’ choice of medium, they will be challenged and supported in development of a style and outcomes contributing to the substantial portfolio.
