QUICK SKETCHING 1
The class has four lessons – as noted, full of inspiration, information, tips, demos, exercises and videos, plus each lesson has a BONUS page of links, books, and resources.
You’ll learn a variety of quick sketching techniques, with different mediums – you’ll be able to choose the one that best fits YOU, or discover new ones you’ll love. You’ll have plenty of chance to try them out! We will touch on traditional fast sketching techniques, plus new ways to approach them. We’ll cover a bit on value and form, quickly, as well. Mini-videos in every lesson explore right along with you.
And best of all, this is at your convenience, in your own time.
You’ll have a blast! And, with any class, online or otherwise, you’ll get out of the lessons what you put into them. |
