You will be taken step by step through drawing an accurate realistic rendering of a nude figure from observation. Every artistic issue will be explained to help you apply them one-by-one so that you can complete and refine your drawing in five weeks. The instructor will demonstrate each step and provide personalized feedback on how to enhance your drawing and achieve perfect, portfolio-level doneness.

If eyes are the window to the soul, windows can be called the eyes to the world! Windows and doors are a motif well-loved by artists from ancient times to today. Learn about different artists and styles, from the Pompeii to the Early Renaissance, to the 19th-century Realism, to Symbolism, Surrealism, and Modern art, and find your unique voice by drawing a life-sized window that overlooks a sea, or a door that opens onto a balcony over a lush garden, and let it inspire a story that unfolds inside or outside. All levels welcome.

Create powerful abstract artworks using mixed media, words, and imagery. In this course, you'll experiment with newspaper clippings, magazine pages, and a variety of paper textures to build a piece that goes beyond traditional painting. By the end of the course, you'll have four hang to ready pieces and a deeper understanding of the expressive potential of abstraction. Perfect for all levels.

In 12 classes, you’ll learn the techniques of drawing from the beginning. The drawings above are by students who joined this course as absolute beginners. You will build the skills by rendering objects and environments with a teaching method found nowhere else. All drawings will be created in monochrome (black and white) to focus on the basics: light and shadow, line, and dimension.
