Drawing & Painting for Beginners

Drawing & Painting for Beginners

This drawing and acrylic painting fundamentals course will guide you through the basics of drawing and painting.  

Create drawings with depth and dimension by using light and shade.  

Learn about good composition, negative space, identifying light source, texture, and look at a variety of drawing mediums such as graphite, charcoal, pastel and ink, making texture medium and applying to paper to create individual textures to draw into. 

Learn the basics of acrylic painting, colour theory and colour schemes.

You will spend some time on understanding what different brushes do, as well as pushing the boundaries of painting by introducing some mixed media work, and using tools other than brushes to apply paint.
