In this class we’ll do an academic cast drawing from start to finish, from a blank sheet of paper to a finished drawing. I’ll guide you along each and every step while explaining my thought process in separate stages of the drawing.

Each stage of the drawing is broken down into its own steps and processes so its easy to follow along! There will also be small checkpoints before moving to the next stage. This class is great for all skill levels, but especially for those looking to get started with atelier style academic drawing as well as understanding foundational drawing skills like block-ins and form.

This is a long class since it is an entire drawing from start to finish. While the video portions are sped up for the sake of time, there are many explanations along the way with each stage of the drawing. These kinds of exercises would be typical of a first year student at a traditional atelier and are the gateway to portraits as well as figure drawing. The most difficult part of these exercises is giving yourself the time and patience to take each stage of the drawing slowly and focusing on accuracy. There is no time limit with these kinds of drawings so my best advice would be to work at your own pace and try not to rush through the steps. The more careful you are through each stage, the less you will have to go back and make corrections.
