The Power of Line is designed to teach anyone who has the desire, to learn to draw. We will explore many classical methods of drawing that have been passed down through the ages. We will explore the essential techniques of drawing foundation shapes that are the basis of all intermediate and advanced drawing. This is part 1 of a series of basic drawing classes that will help you to learn to draw with confidence and to meet your drawing goals.

The is part 1 of a 3 part series designed to teach the student the fundamentals of drawing. Just like a music class where you first learn notes and keys, we will explore the use of line to create basic shapes both 2 dimensional and 3 dimensional. Understanding how to draw these foundation shapes is the beginning of learning to draw.

This a great course for anyone who needs to improve their drawing. Who wants to learn drawing but doesn't know where to start.
