Description

The Artist’s Eye - How we see and draw Sign up for a beginning drawing class with Donna Beverly Thursday, September 29 at the Benton Center, Room 106 Absolutely no previous experience in drawing is needed for this class. You will master the Visual Alphabet - the basis of all drawing. When we were children, we drew as children. Most adults still draw like fourth graders. Designed as a drawing class for non-artists, we explore how the brain decides which eye it trusts and then learn how the brain selects which hemisphere to use when solving specific problems. Our two cameras – our two eyes – record two divergent views of the world. Through guided symbolic sketching, the non-artist will experience how the artists sees and perceives the world, and in turn will learn to draw. This is a fun way to explore our brain’s lesser right hemisphere and a great class to take before any other art class. Also appropriate for all home-schoolers and educators, this knowledge is applicable to teaching children to visually observe and draw. Please check the supply list for needed drawing materials. I will supply a drawing chamois to each participant. I look forward to seeing you in the class. Questions? Feel free contact me. Please note: LBCC’s staff made an error in the description of the course and copied my previous summer course by mistake. Above is the correct description that I hope you will still be interested in pursuing. You do NOT need to purchase the book online as listed in the supply list, because LBCC has promised me that they will pay for WHERE THE SHADOWS HIDE text for each student.
