Unit 1. Portraiture.

This unit focuses on the art of portraiture, involving various drawing techniques and materials. Students will experiment with contour drawing by imagining the pencil's movement across the face, varying pressure to create light and dark areas. Influenced by artists like Del Kathryn Barton and Egon Schiele, learners will engage in time-based challenges such as one-minute and eight-minute portraits, continuous line drawings, and tonal portraits. This hands-on approach fosters creativity while connecting to significant artistic influences and the themes of portraiture in art.
