Welcoming the beginning student or those who wish to reinforce essential drawing skills, this foundational course will follow weekly lessons in a variety of practical lessons to include:
- Drawing Heads. ( a. Dynamic frontally, 3/4 heads)
- Hands, Feet
- Garments
- The standing figure
- The seated figure
- Moving figures
- Beginning compositions
Throughout the lessons, students will strengthen their overall drawing skills, gain familiarity with the Byzantine system, and work towards their own readiness to compose more complex subjects and small compositions.
Students will submit their drawings online by email to Dr. Kordis, with Live Zoom sessions reserved for group corrections and critique — all lessons are to be watched and followed in the student’s own time with specific assignments given. We always provide a recording of all Zoom sessions — it is not a requirement to be present at the Live sessions. This class is designed as a two-semester course, building incrementally throughout the year.
