In this 40 minute class, together we will work in stages to create a lifelike drawing of our four-legged friend.
We will divide the drawing into sections - ears, head, eyes, nose, and body.
We will learn how to draw a gradient background to compliment and enhance the subject.
We will approach the drawing by first creating an effective base layer with soft pastel sticks, and follow by capturing a realistic fur texture and details with pastel pencils.
We will master depth to make our subject appear three-dimensional.
We will learn how to capture and express the character and personality of the specific dog.
Why you should take this class:
By breaking down the portrait into sections and steps, you will build confidence when drawing.
You will learn how to bring uniqueness to your work that will reflect the personality of the individual pet.
By the end of the class you will not only be able to draw this gorgeous dog but pets with other fur textures and colours.
We will be focusing on animal portraiture, however, there are general transferable pastel drawing skills you will learn in this class.
With the skills learnt, you may create amazing portraits of your pets for friends and family, or even start a business.
