Introduction to Drawing

 

Short description of the course

Drawing has less to do with skillful hands and more with how one sees the world. This course aims to teach you a different way to see the world.

Drawing is a basis for all visual art practice. This is especially true for painting, where besides the physical mixing of colour and the tactile of the paint, everything else is drawn. The aim of this course is to teach you the fundamentals; to provide a solid basic skillset, that can be further developed to any directions.

 

What to expect?

  • Throughout the course you will try different materials to draw with (e.g. pens, pencils, charcoal, pastel etc.)
  • Each class starts with a clear explanation and demonstration of the subject by the art teacher, which is followed by a drawing exercise.
  • You will be drawing from photo references as well as from still life. 

 

What is included?

  • The workshop is fully guided by Hungarian visual artist Patricia Kaliczka
  • All materials such as papers, different drawing tools, boards, etc. are included. You do not have to bring anything, except for your good mood.

 

What you will achieve?

  • You will learn practical fundamentals, like the correct posture and pencil holding, what drawing tools exists, how to sharpen your pencil with a blade etc.
  • You will learn how to draw and think in three dimension.
  • You will learn the laws of light and what to look for when shading any type of object or surface.
  • You will learn to understand value and how to use it in your drawings

 

Is this course right for me?

This course is designed for beginners, but those with prior drawing experience can benefit as well. For them, it can be helpful to organise their existing knowledge and to develop an effective working process. For more experienced students we recommend the second module of this course, or participation in our study groups.

 

Good to know

1. We are happy to store your works throughout the course.

2. This course has a second (intermediate level) module, which starts right after this module ends. You might want to consider buying the two modules in a package as you get a 10% discount on your purchase.

3. This course provides basic knowledge of what to pay attention to when drawing, In order to fully incorporate this knowledge, one needs to practice. Therefore, we have created our study groups, when two days a week (Mondays and Wednesdays) you can continue practicing in a community of like-minded-people.
