Introduction to Figure Drawing

In person

Eric March

Step into the fundamentals of figure drawing through the dramatic interplay of light and shadow. Participants will learn how to build a figure from the ground up—sharpening observational skills, understanding proportion, and capturing expressive contour lines. Through focused practice with shading and value, students will bring depth and dimension to your drawings, transforming flat marks into convincing three-dimensional form. Tuition for this class includes a fee of $10 for basic materials (newsprint and charcoal) provided by CAW. School Policies Students who withdraw 48 hours prior to the first class are eligible for a refund or credit toward another class, less a $25 registration fee. Please click here for more details.
