In this two session class students will create a structural portrait using white chalk and graphite. In the first session students will create a block-in using the anatomical landmarks of the face, tilts, and measurements. In the second session of the class, students will render their drawings with tonal shapes and white chalk highlights.
Class Schedule: 20th, and 27th from 6:30 – 9:30
Please note: Because we limit our student count, if you miss a class, a critique of your last work can be offered the next session. That is the benefit of small classes.
