Skill-Builders 4
Magic of Drawing: Creating the Illusion of 3D Space on a 2D Surface
This class will explore several techniques used to create the illusion of depth on a 2 dimensional surface. Students will develop more creative “control” of their artwork through topics such as shading and shadows, overlapping, visual perspective, one and two-point perspective, value and composition. They will create a reference notebook as well as projects using a variety of drawing materials. However, as part of the Skill-Builders Series, the emphasis of this class is on practice and growth in understanding of concepts and technical skills, not necessarily to have a stack of frame-worthy pieces. We will also observe and discuss how artists throughout history have approached the issue of space.
