Fundaments of Drawing & Painting with Leeanna Chipana
This course is specifically geared for those students new to drawing, or those who have some painting/drawing experience but have never been presented with the basics. Leeanna will present the fundamentals of drawing and oil painting from the very beginning. Students will be given helpful information regarding the concept of form and value. When students have completed the fundamentals of drawing they will move onto learning how to paint. Leeanna will also introduce various methods for beginning an oil painting, starting first with a single color and gradually moving toward a full-spectrum palette. Lessons will be taught in a clear and straightforward manner, and the instructor will work one-on-one with every student to ensure that each one can learn at his or her own pace. |
