How is The Drawing Laboratory different than the original Art & Science of Drawing?
The original Art & Science of Drawing series is a concise guide to the basics of drawing. The Drawing Laboratory is a much more comprehensive guide to drawing that teaches new tools and techniques, offers new insights, and includes more detailed demonstrations. I have also improved the production values and tried to create something that will stand the test of time.
Once all four courses in The Drawing Laboratory are complete, this new series will offer a lot to students who have already gone through the original Art & Science courses, while also providing opportunities to continue to practice familiar fundamentals.
The remaining two courses in The Drawing Laboratory will be available in fall 2024.
