Follow a thoughtfully crafted progression that builds your artistic base step by step. Our program guides you from simple line work to confident creative expression using proven teaching approaches.
Breakdown of Learning Modules
Each module builds on prior knowledge while introducing fresh concepts. Expect about three weeks per module, leaving time for practice and skill uptake.
Foundational Lines & Basic Shapes
We begin by mastering pencil control. You'll discover how varying grips influence line quality and practice steady strokes. Basic geometric shapes form the building blocks.
- Line Weight Management
- Geometric Construction
- Hand–Eye Coordination
Understanding Light & Shadow
Light makes objects look three-dimensional on a flat surface. You'll study how light behaves and practice convincing shadows using diverse shading methods.
- Value Scales
- Cast Shadows
- Form Shadows
- Reflected Light
Perspective Basics
Objects get smaller as they recede. This module covers one-point and two-point perspective, helping you draw believable spaces and forms.
- Horizon Lines
- Vanishing Points
- Foreshortening
- Spatial Relationships
Proportional Drawing
Getting proportions right makes drawings appear believable. You'll learn measurement techniques and perceive relationships between different parts of your subject.
- Comparative Measurement
- Negative Space
- Grid Methods
- Visual Triangulation
How We Track Your Progress
Assessments aren't about grades; they're about understanding your current state and direction. We employ multiple methods to help you view your progress and spot areas for targeted practice.
Portfolio Reviews
Every four weeks, we review your recent work together. These conversations help identify patterns in your progress and highlight breakthroughs you may have missed.
Practical Skill Assessments
Short, focused exercises to demonstrate specific techniques. Think of them as friendly challenges — can you create smooth gradations? Draw a cube in perspective? These help us gauge your technical progress.
Peer Feedback Sessions
Sometimes fellow students notice details instructors miss. These structured group discussions teach you to analyze artworks constructively while gaining fresh perspectives on your own work.
Self-Reflection Projects
You'll document your artistic journey through written reflections and comparison studies. This metacognitive approach helps you recognize your own learning process and artistic choices.
