Age 10- Adult Welcome. Whether you are a continuing student or beginning training in realistic drawing,
this course of study will inform your other artistic endeavors with increased discipline and accuracy.
The exercises will introduce the student to the demanding practice of sight-size drawing and comparative
measuring for understanding proportion and strengthen their ability to model form in a variety of traditional
media. Beginners start with exercises from fabled and rare Drawing Course (Cours de Dessin) by Charles
Bargue and Jean-Léon Gérôme, published in Paris in the 1860's and 1870's. Instructor will provide basic
materials for beginning students. Advance or continuing students can also use this studio time for continuing
their studies on an individual basis. James Werner’s realistic drawing program is one of just over
50 programs in the world to be approved by the Art Renewal Center, an international advocate of
traditional training methods.   www.artrenewal.org/asp/database/atelier.asp?atelierID=8
