Drawing II (Grades 6–12)
Friday 8:30–9:55
Teacher: Colin Mead
Description: This class is a continuation of Drawing I class. This class will focus on how we can hone our talents and technique to create even better final pieces.
Once again, we will delve into many aspects of pencil drawing such as materials use, reducing complex objects into simpler forms, perspective, composition and balance, line weight, and shading/blending. A greater emphasis will be placed on composition and balance, using perspective, and value changes. We will learn not only how to draw things, but why we draw them a certain way.
If time and progression of skills permits, we will also explore the more difficult mediums of charcoal, pen, and ink. The materials list is the same as the beginning Drawing class with the addition of a jar of graphite powder (see below). There is a $10 material fee included in the cost of this course.
Class and Material Cost: $405
Supplies:
-
- See the list for Drawing I
- 12 oz. pure graphite powder by Godora found on Amazon, $16.99
Prerequisite: Completion of the Beginning Drawing class or an equivalent is a prerequisite for the Drawing II class.
