Acquire the fundamentals of drawing through composition, line, proportions, volumes and modeled values. This is a solid, practical introduction to drawing.

The emphasis is on observation, so that students learn to situate a shape among others, to simplify it so as to be able to read it, memorize it and finally reproduce it, moving from three to two dimensions. Corrections are made according to each student’s level, from beginner to advanced. Through the specificities of each technique freely chosen by the student, classes address questions of proportion, foreshortening, the rendering of light and space, as well as contemporary artistic questioning with reference to works of today, as well as those of the past.

The poses are alternated in very different times. The long exposures allow for an analytical study of forms, and more elaborate compositional work. The shorter periods encourage more intuitive drawing.

All classes are taught in French.

Equipment to be provided by the trainee (list given on registration).

*Classes will be suspended during the Christmas holidays and will continue during the winter holidays.
