Drawing from Scratch
A 6-Week Eye-Opening Introduction to Drawing
Drawing isn’t a magical gift you’re born with — it’s a language, and like any language, it starts with learning how to read what’s right in front of you.
Join Phoenix Art Workshop founder Mark Glavina for a transformative 6-week foundational journey designed to strip away the frustration of drawing and unlock the keys to learning to see like an artist. Whether you are picking up a pencil for the very first time or looking to rebuild your creative foundation from the ground up, this class breaks down complex visual concepts into clear, actionable, and immensely satisfying skills.
We start at the absolute beginning, demystifying classical drawing concepts without the intimidating jargon. Step by step, you will master:
- Comparative Measurement: Learn how to accurately judge proportions, angles, and relationships so your drawings look true to life every single time.
- Perspective Made Easy: Discover straightforward, practical rules for spatial depth that turn flat paper into believable 3D space — no complicated math required.
- Shape & Form: Move beyond simple flat outlines by learning how light, shadow, and value lock together to create weight, volume, and solid form.
What You’ll Come Away With:
By the end of this course, you will leave with a permanent shift in visual perception — the ability to analyze any subject, break it down into manageable structural shapes, and translate it onto paper with genuine confidence and intent.
