DRAWING FOR ADULT BEGINNERS #DRAWING
ActonArt Drawing School - Tracy Reed
Have you ever wished you could draw but didn't know where to begin? Perhaps you even feel intimidated by the idea of taking a drawing class because you don't believe you have "talent" or don't already know how to draw. Drawing is a skill that can be taught and learned, and it's never too late to learn. ActonArt's Drawing for Adult Beginners course will introduce you to the concepts and visual perceptions that are the basic foundation of realistic/ representational drawing in a relaxing, no-critique environment. Guided projects and exercises will cover the use of line (edges), tone (light and shadow), spaces (negative and positive), and relationships (perspective, proportion, etc.). A variety of mediums may be used, including graphite, charcoal, marker, soft pastel, or colored pencil. Absolutely no experience is necessary or expected. All high quality materials included in the course fee. ActonArt Drawing School is a drawing and fine art program for all skill levels and ages - children, teens and adults. Tracy Reed has been teaching at ActonArt since 2003. The school was founded by John Goodnough based on his passionate belief that drawing is a life-skill that everyone can and should learn. Its progressive curriculum is a comprehensive presentation of core concepts and developmental skill-building projects built around student-friendly topics and drawing subjects. Special interest courses such as Manga Drawing, Oil Painting and pre-college Portfolio Development are also offered. Visit www.actonart.com for more information. Registration fee includes all materials for the class. Limit 10.
