Introduction to Life Drawing*

An eight week drawing course specifically designed for motivated high school students interested in developing a successful Fine Arts portfolio for college admissions requirements. The curriculum will encompass figure studies (clothed and nude models*) and self-portraiture introducing a variety of drawing techniques and media, within an Art Historical context. Students will be required to bring their stiff, large portfolio case since most of the sup­plies will be distributed in class and is included in the tuition. Homework will be assigned to promote maximum developmental improvement as well as additional portfolio pieces. 

 *Because of the use of a nude model after the first or second class, all students are required to have a signed permission slip from their parents/guardians. The permission slip will be given out in the first class.
