Introduction to Drawing w/Nathan Durnin

Intro to Drawing:

Working primarily from direct observation of still life, this class will focus on the fundamentals of drawing such as sight measurement, perspective theory, light/shadow structure, and form. The end goal is that students will be able to better understand and conceptualize the shapes in front of them and approach drawing without intimidation.
