Discovering Drawing: From Sketching to Contour

In this virtual class, you will be guided through some basic techniques for doing observational drawing based on your own 3D objects. We will do a series of drawing exercises, beginning with “sketching” techniques and lead into some tips for refining your drawings, by focusing on contours. This class is open to a variety of age levels and is geared toward beginners. There will be opportunities for you to submit questions throughout, and a chance to show off your work at the end (if you choose)!

Supplies needed:

• A pencil-try to find a regular pencil or a drawing pencil-not a mechanical.
• An eraser (optional)
• A pencil sharpener (optional)
• Paper
