Students will work from the model in exciting set-ups in the classroom and in outdoor settings on Governors Island. The focus will be on improving drawing skills by introducing new ways of seeing. By looking and constantly analyzing what and how we see, we improve our drawings. Students (participants) will broaden their drawing vocabulary and expand their understanding of how they perceive and make form, space, and depth in a picture through line and mass. Students are encouraged to explore and take risks they have never taken before. Includes lunch break & ½ hour review/wrap up each day.
