Techniques

Students will use acrylic, graphite, Prismacolor, and charcoal and learn 2-point perspective, graphite, shading, as well as how to draw human figures with different movements, faces, and in different profiles.

 

Focus

We focus on increasing the student's speed at this level and also work on the core of their artwork: their originality and creativity. Therefore, students are encouraged to apply their technical skills to create original artwork using references from magazines, books, and live subjects. We find that independent work allows students to channel their creative passions.

 

Achievement

Students have mastered the fundamentals of art and are expected to not only draw any picture within twenty minutes but to also draw any complex pictures they come across in their daily lives.
