Drawing by Part Time student, Mi-Hee Nahm. |
Traditional Drawing in the
Academic Method begins with sight size, master copy
and cast drawing in charcoal and pencil. Beginning students are also
encouraged to attend life drawing and portrait sessions as space
allows. All classes are multi level, full
time, part time and weekly lessons can also be arranged. The course can be
entered at any time and relies on individual systematic
progression rather than any given time frame for
it's completion.
