Full course description

Online course meets once a week on Thursdays from 6-9pm EDT via zoom.

A stress-free studio environment is created where students will learn to make confident quick-sketch diagrams to aid in presenting their ideas without undue pressure. This is NOT a classical drawing course; it is a series of classes carefully designed to give you the ability to make quick sketches, regardless of drawing skill, on any available material and in any social situation.

More info: do not let a lack of confidence in your ability to draw prevent you from expressing your ideas quickly and successfully. Give yourself the freedom to scrawl your concepts on paper or on the back of a napkin and you will reach a new level of spontaneous creativity. Even in the age of digital drawing, the ability to sketch will enable you to effectively communicate with clients and colleagues. Either on the spur of the moment or by routine, learn to embrace your pen and paper and you will be surprised at how sketching can save time, improve work flow, enhance communication, boost creativity, and be enjoyable. This course will instruct you on the use of basic drawing materials, simple shapes and composition for creating informative diagrams quickly and with minimum effort.
