You will learn the fundamentals of freehand drawing by observing the reference photo of a chosen pop culture character. We approach the use of lighting, contrast and how to create shadows and tones with various blending techniques to create realism. This approach helps remove the intimidation that artists have when they see a realistic drawing and feel like they cannot even come close to it and therefore not even give it a chance.
