Basic Skills-Getting Started with Drawing

Category:

About This Class

Drawing is not a talent. It’s a skill anyone can learn. Designed for aspiring painters, graphic designers, illustrators and artists of all types, The Art & Science of Drawing series will teach you the foundation of art and design of all kinds: drawing.

BASIC SKILLS is the first course in the series and will teach you the basics of drawing one day at a time.

Here’s how it works:

Each day you’ll watch one video lesson that will teach you an essential drawing skill. At the end of each lesson you’ll be given a project designed to build your drawing skills quickly and efficiently. After doing the project, you’re ready for the next day’s lesson and project!

In this beginning drawing course you’ll learn:

How to use the pencil like an artist
How to draw any shape
How to analyze and draw any subject by simplifying it into basic shapes
