Continue building on the skills developed in Youth Drawing 1! Designed for youth who are serious about art, Youth Drawing 2 continues the development of the Layering Principle of Drawing, moving into more advanced stages of construction. Students deepen their understanding of believable 3D form and depth, with a stronger focus on refining and completing finished artwork. The course culminates in fully workshopped animal and monster character designs that students can be proud to add to their portfolio. All materials are included. Taught by Zen Rankin, a youth art instructor with over 15 years of experience. We offer an ongoing, flexible schedule: • Youth Drawing runs year-round with no fixed start or end dates. Classes are held most Saturdays, and students can begin at any time. There's no need to wait for a new session! • Drop into any class that fits your schedule, and take a week off whenever needed. • Students complete a weekly self-directed assignment supported by about 1 hour of video instruction, then bring their completed work to class for in-person feedback and coaching. What students will gain: • Stronger control of 3D form, structure, and depth in drawing • Advanced character design skills focused on animals and monsters • Improved ability to construct dynamic, believable poses and proportions • A more refined and intentional drawing process they can apply to any subject • Stronger use of line for storytelling, mood, and impact • Completed, workshopped character designs ready to include in a portfolio • Increased confidence and independence in their artistic practice • A supportive space to grow their skills whether they just like drawing for fun, or are dreaming of a future career in art
