Banish any fears about your ability to draw by learning the basics! This course is an introduction to the language of drawing and how it is used to communicate what and how we observe the world around us. Students will focus on 1) shapes and edges, 2) proportion and measurement, 3) light and shadow, and 4) the illusion of space or perspective.
