This course will demonstrate some of the basic skills for sketching animal subjects, including anatomy, movement and characteristics. Guided by local artist Rosie Harel-Dore, learners will discover how complex animal forms can be broken down into simple shapes for ease of drawing, so that even the most inexperienced artist may achieve satisfying results. From familiar pets to insects, birds and aquatic life, this is the perfect course for anyone wishing to experience the joy of capturing the living world around them on paper.
