$255 (model fees included)
This class will focus on drawing the portrait from direct observation from a live model using graphite on paper. A step-by-step approach will be taught from the foundation to the finish. The methods Leslie will teach are "tried and true" and they will improve the drawing skills of each student. We will focus on building a strong foundation with the "envelope", blocking-in and massing shadows, developing the contour and final refinement of the drawing. Leslie's instructional technique includes demonstration, lecture and in-depth, one on-one constructive and gentle guidance. Model fees included.
