Develop or improve your essential drawing skills through understanding the many ways in which ‘line’ and ‘mark making’ may be used in drawing. We will look at the different ways artists have used line and experiment with different media during the course. This hop-on, hop-off series aims to gently embed, refresh and refine the foundation skills for being a fine artist. Each is observational rather than working from photos.
