Artists from Leonardo da Vinci &#8211; the Vitruvian Man and anatomy studies &#8211; to Van Gogh and the mind-bending drawings of Escher, demonstrate that a pencil is far from basic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How To Draw With Pencil: What You Need To Know<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While learning how to draw and discovering how versatile a pencil can be, we\u2019ll explore a range of skills and techniques, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Perspective and drawing three dimensional spaces<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ellipses<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tonal values<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Observation and developing hand-eye coordination<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sighting&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enlarging with grids<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Light sources and shadows<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mixed media<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mark-making and texture, such as stippling<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cross-hatching to create contours&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Setting a \u2018ground\u2019 for your work to add dimension<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Looking at the impact of different coloured paper or \u2018supports\u2019<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Using an eraser to \u2018draw\u2019 or create highlights<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Assessing proportion, scale, form and negative space<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Observing volume and depth<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Creating initial sketches and under-drawings<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Balanced and well-designed compositions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Deconstructing a drawing&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We always demonstrate the technique before allowing plenty of time to try the drawing exercise for yourself. We guide and encourage experimentation and give you the chance to express your creativity and curiosity with each new medium that you learn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You will also be given detailed handouts to take away with you so that you can practice at home if the mood takes you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How To Shade A Drawing With Pencil<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During the classes, we\u2019ll explore the concept of light and shadow and how we can capture this in our work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your tutor will demonstrate a range of techniques for shading and creating depth in drawings, including hatching or cross-hatching to create contours and darker tonal values. You will have the opportunity to practice various light and shadow techniques.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Knowing the effects of different pencil grades will also allow you to achieve a broad range of tones and textures. During one of your early classes, you\u2019ll make a tonal \u2018sampler\u2019 to showcase the range of tones that can be achieved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What Are The Different Pencil Grades?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In day-to-day life, we tend to find ourselves reaching for a standard HB pencil or even a propelling pencil with refillable leads. However, step into any art supply shop and you\u2019ll see many types of pencils with differing uses, from graphite to charcoal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pencils are graded based on the hardness or softness of their graphite core. The HB scale indicates the texture of the graphite:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>H is harder graphite<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Marks: lighter and finer<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ideal for: precise or technical <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theseasonsartclass.com\/nz\/courses\/drawing\/\">drawings<\/a>, outlines to be erased and finer lines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>B is softer graphite<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Marks: darker and richer<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ideal for: shading and creating expressive, bold lines.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ahead of your first class, we can supply you with a set of graphite pencils for a nominal fee. They come in a neat portfolio-style case which is practical for drawing in various settings.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Learn How To Draw And Paint<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you\u2019ve got to grips with drawing, it will provide you with the foundation for the rest of your 14-week course, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Still life drawing<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Improve your observational skills by capturing a composition of everyday items.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We\u2019ll share the techniques that will help you to convey texture, form, tone and proportion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Portraiture<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We\u2019ll experiment with the challenge of portrait drawing and capturing someone\u2019s likeness and facial expression.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Figurative drawing<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You will have the opportunity to learn about the proportions of the human body.
