Let’s Make Stuff with d’Arci: Getting Some Perspective (Virtual)

by

Getting the proper perspective has been an essential element in drawing and painting since the late 1400s. Artists use perspective to create an illusion of space and depth on a flat surface in a way that looks natural and realistic. It may seem complicated at first, but in this class, local artist d’Arci Bruno will share some simple techniques to mimic what we see and use our powers of perspective to Rule the Art World!

For this class you will need: A ruler or straight edge, pencil, eraser, drawing paper, tracing paper, colored pencils/markers/crayons.
