Perspective in Practice: Drawing from Life with Depth and Dimension

January 25, 2025 5:00 PM - 6:30 PM (EST)

Description


Join us for a dynamic six week long drawing class at the Bower Center for the Arts, where you'll explore the fundamentals of perspective and hone your skills in drawing from life. This class is designed for artists of all levels who want to deepen their understanding of spatial relationships and accurately depict the world around them. 

Through a series of guided exercises and hands-on practice, you'll learn the principles of one-point, two-point, and three-point perspective, helping you create realistic and engaging compositions. We'll work with a variety of subjects, including still-life setups, and architectural forms, to develop your ability to see and capture the world with precision and creativity. 

Our experienced instructor will provide personalized feedback and demonstrations, ensuring you gain confidence in your drawing techniques. Whether you're a beginner looking to build a strong foundation or an experienced artist aiming to refine your skills, this class offers a supportive and inspiring environment to grow as an artist.
