Your Drawing Journey Planned
Follow a thoughtfully structured progression that strengthens your artistic base step by step. Our curriculum guides you from basic line work to confident creative expression through proven teaching methods.
Learning Modules Breakdown
Each module builds on what you’ve already learned while introducing new concepts. You’ll dedicate roughly three weeks to each module, allowing time for practice and skill consolidation.
Foundation Lines & Basic Shapes
We begin by mastering pencil control. You’ll learn how different grips affect line quality and practice producing consistent strokes. Basic geometric forms become your building blocks.
- Line Weight Control
- Geometric Construction
- Hand-Eye Coordination
Understanding Light & Shadow
Light gives objects a three-dimensional feel on flat paper. You’ll study how light behaves and practice creating convincing shadows using various shading techniques.
- Value Scales
- Cast Shadows
- Form Shadows
- Reflected Light
Perspective Fundamentals
Objects appear 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 feel believable. You’ll learn measurement techniques and practice perceiving relationships between different parts of your subject.
- Comparative Measurement
- Negative Space
- Grid Methods
- Visual Triangulation
How We Monitor Your Progress
Assessment isn’t about grades — it’s about understanding where you are and where you’re headed. We employ multiple methods to help you see your development and identify areas for focused practice.
Portfolio Reviews
Every four weeks, we meet to review your recent work. These conversations help identify patterns in your growth and highlight breakthroughs you might have missed.
Practical Skill Tests
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 both see your technical progress.
Peer Feedback Sessions
Sometimes fellow students notice details instructors might miss. These structured group discussions teach you to analyze artwork constructively while gaining fresh perspectives on your own work.
Self-Reflection Projects
You’ll document your artistic journey through written reflections and comparative studies. This metacognitive approach helps you become aware of your own learning process and artistic choices.
