Good design starts with a sketchbook
and pencil. Understanding the basic principles of drawing helps to
refine and hone your design concepts and clearly communicate your ideas
in different media. Learn the difference between linear and
empirical perspective as you strengthen your hand-to-eye coordination,
creating shapes and three-dimensional forms on a flat surface.
After the basics of pencil drawing, explore the differences between
watercolor, acrylics and oil painting, and how to adopt the right method
for specific people, places, things, and ideas. Bring all of your
creative inspirations to life on paper and canvas using the same basic
principles and tools that successful artists rely upon. Learn how
to:
-
draw straight lines and basic
shapes without
the help of a ruler or other tools
-
create shapes and
three-dimensional forms on a flat surface
-
judge proportion by eye and with
pencil in the hand
-
understand the fundamentals of
perspective, figure, and form
-
design and layout a balanced
composition in proper proportion
-
draw with different types of tools
such as a pencil, crayons,
ink, and charcoal
-
use colors to paint in pastels,
watercolor, and acrylic, based
on your pencil sketches
-
utilize color theory in different
techniques and practices to
achieve desired effects with color (color theory)
-
acrylic and watercolor together
-
oil painting on paper and canvas
-
create several sketches, drawings,
and paintings along the way
Experience the mystery and delight
of bringing the world, your world, to life on paper and canvas, as you
learn to transform your own interpretation of people, places, and things
into compelling works of art.
