In this insightful drawing class, you will learn how artists transform simple shapes into convincing three-dimensional forms. Over two relaxed evening sessions, you'll delve into the basics of observational drawing, using geometric forms to explore shape, proportion, and spatial relationships. Through guided exercises, you'll discover how to break down complex subjects into simple structures and build confidence with line, composition, and form.
