Fundamentals of Still Life Drawing
Instructor: Milan Franklin
4-Week Workshop | All Levels Welcome
Join classically trained draftsman and painter Milan Franklin for a focused, four-week workshop exploring the foundational principles of still life drawing. Designed for both beginners and experienced artists looking to refine their technique, this course emphasizes construction, accuracy, and process.
Working from a shared still life setup prepared in advance by the instructor, students will learn a step-by-step approach to building a successful drawing. Each session includes instructor demonstrations, concept breakdowns, and dedicated time for students to apply what they've learned. Individual critiques will be provided throughout the course to support growth and help each student achieve a high level of execution.
By the end of the workshop, participants will have a stronger understanding of the tools, techniques, and visual thinking necessary to create compelling and well-structured still life drawings.
Participants must register for all 4 classes, each class will build upon the previous session.
Materials are required.
