Drawing is the most basic of art skills and is at the core of the creative process.
It promotes a deep respect for looking and thinking. Whether you are studying to be a visual artist, exploring an interest in art history or simply appreciate art, drawing can be an enriching experience giving one insight into the creative process and what artists do and have done over time. It is a common denominator for us all at some point in our lives it came naturally. Introduction to Drawing aims to rediscover that natural impulse.
