This four day course focuses on cast drawing using the sight size method. Working from plaster casts after antique and Renaissance sculpture, you will develop your eye in proportion, value and modelling as you practice material handling in
charcoal. The course is structured around careful exactness in life size drawing, building a strong foundation for both painting and figure work.
