Chris Legaspi is a fine artist and instructor with over 30 years of drawing and painting experience. In this class, students will learn a simple-to-follow approach to draw realistic and life-like portraits from start to finish. Along with lay-in and structural techniques, Chris will share insights on creating likeness, and how to add story, emotion and depth to your drawings.

This class assumes no prior knowledge. We take head drawing back to fundamentals including planning your portrait, staging and making compositional thumbnails, analyzing the sitter, creating a rough lay-in, establishing good structure, and separating light from shadow. Each week Chris will lecture on various topics and demonstrate his approach using a range of materials. As students draw from life, Chris will give personal, one-on-one feedback and guidance. Online-only students can also submit their work to get critiques directly from Chris.

All enrolled students will also receive one year’s access to the recording the lecture portion of the class online. This is helpful to reinforce the principles of each week and to catch any concepts you may have missed the first time around.
