Description

This course introduces a range of techniques, methodologies and best practices related to materials used in Drawing and Painting. Industry terminology and standard practices are explored and then applied in a range of practical exercises.

This project-based course is broken into four modules that cover key material considerations for Drawing, Painting, Conservation and New Technologies.
