Learn the strategies that Rembrandt, Daumier, Cézanne, and Vermeer used to harness light and unify, intensify, and give dimension to their images. In-class exercises focus on using graphite, ink, and pastel to draw studies of masterworks. The goal is not to copy the images but to create drawings with a parallel luminous effect.

A beginning drawing class or equivalent experience is strongly recommended but not required for this course.
