Learn to Draw Faces Now registering for winter quarter Saturdays, 2010 4/24-5/15 - held on the UW campus
In this class you'll learn to draw faces and portraits using an easy step-by-step method, even if you've never drawn before. We'll begin by sketching some faces based on simple underlying shapes, then add details. You'll learn about features, proportions, shading, and expressions, and how to use surprisingly easy "right brain" methods to make your sketch look more like the person you're drawing. Beginners and experienced welcome. Nothing to bring or buy; all materials are provided.
The next session of this class meets on Saturdays, from 11 a.m.-12:45 p.m. from 4/24-5/15 (there are four meetings) It's taught by Nils Osmar Sponsored by: ASUW Experimental College Location: UW campus in Seattle. Tuition: $99. Questions? Call 206-420-1309 or email

Student comments
Good pace...I didn't get bored which happens so many times in things like this. Good hints and tips. I felt I could actually draw a face when it was over. (comment submitted online) The instructor was knowledgeable, friendly, and encouraging. He was very responsive to people's questions and made good suggestions. (comment submitted online) Instructor's organization and style of communicating making everyone comfortable and accepted, plus helpful feed back (comment submitted online) I just wanted to say thanks for the class. I really liked it, and learned a lot. - Gene J. (Seattle) I took the workshop because I was hoping to learn enough to do a portrait of my granddaughter for Christmas. I feel ready to tackle it now. Thanks so much. - Terry R. (Bellevue) Thanks again for the class. It was great. The information about angles and proportions was just what I was looking for. - Nina G. (Bellevue) Thanks, Nils. I enjoyed your class very much and may take your general drawing class or maybe even this one on faces again. You are a good instructor and obviously a talented artist. - Jan S, Seattle I wanted to improve on proportions and expressions... it worked out great. I feel way more comfortable and confident. I'm amazed at how much we covered. - A. Pell, Seattle
