Dynamic Sketching (Live Class – 2022)

Join NMA instructor Charles Hu in this 12-week interactive walkthrough of his course Dynamic Sketching. This live class allows you to work through core course content from the upcoming Learning Tracks as an Interactive Live Class. In this course, you will join Charles for a beginner-friendly series on how to draw animal anatomy. Charles will teach you the core fundamentals of dynamic sketching. You will learn to focus on gesture, shape, and structure while drawing various subjects. Charles will first introduce you to the materials needed for the course and give you basic drawing exercises that will help strengthen your hand’s muscle memory. From there, you will learn to manipulate organic, geometric shapes and add surface details. Charles will demonstrate drawing animal skeletons, marine animals, insects, landscapes, cars, and many more. In addition, you will explore sketching in color using gouache. After this course, you will develop an ability to break down any 3D subject into a 2D structure, and from there, draw with confidence.
