Block Crayon Drawing - Level 1

This course is anyone who wants to learn about the unique and wonderful artistic medium known as block crayons. Because of their shapes, the block crayons apply color in wider bands, much more like a paintbrush than a stick crayon or colored pencil. This allows for blending of colors and shading--both of which allow for vibrant, rich, and beautiful visual effects. In addition, the block crayons apply color quickly, much more quickly than a tradition stick crayon. So, the beautiful drawings in this course can be created relatively quickly. The 36 start-to-finish lessons take the student through 36 drawings, and the lessons average somewhere around 15 minutes each. This course is a great primer for students who might want to later venture into pastel, colored-pencil, or charcoal drawing. This course is for anyone, youth to adult, who would like to learn some simple and effective techniques with block crayons in order to create some stunning artwork right away. As noted above, this course is a great primer for students who might want to later venture into pastel, colored-pencil, or charcoal drawing.
