If you are a beginner looking to improve your skills, these art courses are for you. Each subject is divided into two modules, with the first covering the basics and the second building on that foundation.
In Module I, you will gain hands-on experience with art tools and mediums, as well as a basic understanding of forms, perspective, light, and shadow. Module II builds on that foundation, reinforcing what you learned in the first module and teaching new techniques for controlling tones, composition, and refining acquired skills.
By the end of both modules, you will have a solid foundation in art fundamentals and be ready to move on to more complex thematic courses.
