Portrait Drawing

In their drawings, students will focus on the proportional relationships of the human head and face to achieve naturalistic resemblance. Instruction in line, shape, light, and shadow will be explored to achieve believable volumetric form. Black and white as well as color materials will be investigated. A model will be present during each class session, and various drawing approaches will be demonstrated. Discussion and presentations on contemporary portraiture and group and individual work reviews are also included.
