Sharpen your drawing skills! Working from a live model, learn what to look for and how to gauge visual relationships to effectively draw the human form. Useful tools for seeing enhance the work of experienced artists and enable novices to begin translating the three-dimensional world into two dimensions.

(In the event that BAC has to cancel a class session due to weather or facility emergencies, please note a suitable makeup date will be selected by polling students for a majority vote. More information on our policies for cancellations can be found HERE.)

Please note masks are still mandatory and required to be worn for this class at this time.

ACCESSIBILITY

NOTE: This class will be held in Berkshire Art Center’s 2D Studio at Citizens’ Hall, Stockbridge. Our 2D Studio is located on the main level of the building, which is accessible via a ramp from the parking lot. In addition, restrooms are located on the basement level of our building so stair use is also required.

For all classes held at Citizens’ Hall in Stockbridge, please note our historic building has narrow doorways and is not equipped with an elevator. Our bathrooms, ceramics studio, and 3D studio are accessible via stairs only. We welcome and make every effort to accommodate learners of all styles and abilities. Please contact us if you have questions about accessibility to our building and classes before registering!
