Using various locations as our classroom, this course will focus on how to sketch different characters in their environments. The instructor will work with students on an individual basis, and you may choose to concentrate on a specific area of interest such as the figure, gesture, architecture or perspective. Students may work in any medium and instruction will be given for a variety of materials, including charcoal, pastel and pen-and-ink. Each session will end with an informal critique. In past semesters, locations have included Chinatown, South Street Seaport, night court and Grand Central Terminal.
Note: Please bring a white all-purpose drawing pad (18x24", 50 lbs.), graphite pencils (8B and 9B), and a kneaded eraser to the first session.
