Intermediate Landscape Drawing
Monday, 6:00 pm
July 6 – July 27 | Ages 16+

Class:

This class is designed to serve as a follow-up to “Introduction to Drawing Landscapes”, but this class may also suit the needs of students with intermediate and advanced drawing skills who have not yet taken the Intro course, but who would enjoy learning about landscapes. This course will build upon foundational drawing techniques while giving students an opportunity for open-studio time to work on personal drawing projects and receive 1:1 feedback from the instructor.

What You’ll Learn:

Students will continue to build upon their drawing skills, focusing on landscape scenes. Students will expand their knowledge of core elements in landscape drawing, such as color theory, atmospheric perspective, value, and composition. Students will work in various mediums, including graphite, charcoal, and colored pencil, with an emphasis on colored pencil. When possible, students will spend some of their class time sketching outside on Baker Hunt’s beautiful campus!

What You’ll Leave With:

Students will leave with increased knowledge and confidence in their landscape drawing skills– which are foundational art techniques that can be applied to a wide variety of art mediums and subjects!
