Perspective: From Concept to Practice

In person

Eric March

Learn the basics of one- and two-point perspective and how to put them to use in observational drawing. This workshop will combine both in-studio concepts of perspective with indoor and outdoor drawing situations where perspective drawing can be used. This class is designed to give the students access to this very practical tool for creating the illusion of space in a drawing-as well as increasing speed and accuracy when drawing from observation. The tuition for this class includes a fee of $10 for basic materials 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.
