Drawing Fundamentals with Doug Ritter

Have you longed to develop fundamental drawing skills or hone your ability to create from observation? In this four-day drawing workshop participants will work from close observation to achieve representation in both black and white and colored drawing media. A special emphasis will be on the underlying principles of form comprehension, proportion, and perspective—all of which inform clarity of vision.
