Description
Join us for two extended afternoons and master perspective in your work!
Day One: Introduction and practice. Multiple step-by-step demonstrations for how perspective works in various types of work, still life, landscape, etc. and time addressing a wide range of weak areas like ellipses and odd shapes in perspective.
Day Two: Review and apply to your own work. Students bring in a reference, draw a still life or use teacher-provided references to draw multiple shapes in perspective in the same environment using any medium of their choice. Instructor will encourage participants to bring in works or images of works they have trouble with in order to troubleshoot and correct perspective issues in the artist’s work on a one-on-one basis.
Class limited to 15 students.
