INTERMEDIATE DRAWING
For: Adults and teens with some drawing experience
Cost $195 for 6 Sessions (Does not include Materials)
In this class we will be working with complex arrangements of basic objects and still life. Students will be
introduced to the Sight-Size Method, a drawing technique used by many Old Masters such as Leonardo da
Vinci. In the U.S., both the term and approach were popularized in the 20th century by artist R.H. Ives
Gammell. This technique is taught in modern Classical Realism Ateliers.

ADVANCED DRAWING
For: Adults and teens with some drawing experience

Once the student has acquired the requisite drawing skills, every student will be expected to work individually
from a plaster cast or a still life lasting several weeks. Student will begin by establishing accurate shapes,
proportions and structure in a linear mode. Then he/she will continue by applying values showing the effect
of light on form and create the illusion of three-dimensionality.
