What to Expect
Online classes cater for beginners, talented teens and experienced artists. The exercises are guided and flexible to accommodate all abilities and sensibilities. We develop fine motor and perceptual skills, approaches to mark making and the depiction of forms in space. We draw a wide variety of objects chosen for their transferable principals and participants have the opportunity to draw together each week via regular Zoom meetings.
All of the exercises are carefully researched and are designed to:
• Help you see the world around you with greater clarity.
• Translate what you see from three dimensions into two.
• Heighten the sensitivity and dexterity of your hand, wrist and arm.
The course is perfect for new students — from beginners to advanced practitioners. Participants will have access to:
• Guided observation and mark making exercises
• A solid introduction to foreshortening and the depiction of forms in space
• Expert feedback and support
