Join artists Paul Richmond and Melissa Forman for a class focused on design fundamentals. Learn the basic principles of design, and how they can be utilized in every step of your artistic process. We'll start with an overview of the design principles and share examples from art history that utilize them. Then we will use cutout geometric shapes to explore different compositional strategies. Next, we will explore thumbnail sketches followed by an exercise in creating depth using line. The next lesson is all about using movement and rhythm in your drawings. And for our final project, we will do a longer drawing of a tiger and learn about creating an intentional focal point.
