INTENSIVE Drawing Class
INTENSIVE Drawing Class
**INTENSIVE Drawing Course - learn to draw independently, step by step** This **intensive drawing course** is for anyone who wants to learn drawing from scratch and master it confidently in the long term. The goal of this course is to guide you step by step **to being able to draw independently** – without reference materials, without uncertainty, and with a solid understanding of form, proportion, and light. The focus is on building a strong foundation that is essential for any drawing style In this course, you'll learn the **absolute basics of drawing** : sketching, shading, and accurate measuring. These three areas form the foundation for both realistic and stylized drawings. You'll learn how to observe subjects correctly, place lines deliberately, and create depth and volume using simple techniques. Measuring proportions, in particular, will help you avoid typical beginner mistakes and significantly improve your drawings. This intensive course is intentionally structured as **an ongoing drawing course**. Drawing is a skill that develops through regular practice. A single session can be inspiring, but it's not enough to make real progress. Through consistent participation, you'll systematically build your knowledge and develop an increasingly refined sense of form, light, and perspective. Each lesson builds upon the previous one and reinforces the concepts learned. A key focus is on **practical application** . You'll actively draw in every lesson and receive individual feedback. I'll personally guide you, show you alternative approaches, and help you develop your own drawing style. The goal is not only to instruct you but also to equip you with the necessary tools to **continue drawing independently** and realize your own designs. ### Draw more, pay less Those who want to draw regularly will benefit from a **course subscription**. With a subscription (4, 6, or 12 lessons), each lesson becomes significantly cheaper. The subscription is ideal for anyone who is motivated, wants to stick with it, and consistently improve their drawing skills. Regular sessions provide structure, routine, and visible progress – exactly what many people need when drawin **For whom?** This intensive drawing course is suitable **for beginners *and motivated newcomers* .** No prior knowledge is required. What's most important is the desire to truly learn how to draw and the willingness to practice regularly. Talent isn't crucial – patience, interest, and consistency are the keys to success. If you want to learn **to draw confidently and independently** , solidify your basics and improve step by step, this intensive course is just right for you.
Urban Sketching – Exploring Buildings Together (Daytime Session)
Urban Sketching – Exploring Buildings Together (Daytime Session)
For our first session, I will bring one simple shopfront photo from Zug. We will all work from the same reference, drawing and painting the same shopfront, each in our own individual way. There is no right or wrong result. ### ✨ What this session is about * slowing down and really looking at a building * noticing small details we usually pass by * exploring how a place feels while we draw This is not about perfect drawings or finished-looking results. The focus is on the **process**, not the outcome. ### 🖌 How we will work Everyone will draw the entire shopfront, while being free to simplify, exaggerate, or interpret details in a personal way. Watercolor, lines, and unfinished sketches are all welcome. ### 🌿 Good to know * No experience needed * This is not a class * A calm, friendly and non-judgmental space ### 📍 Location Indoor location in Zug (details shared after registration) ### 💰 Contribution CHF 20 (covers room rental and facilitation) ### 💬 Language English
