Ways to Draw and Paint - Online Art Classes

Martin Franco


I'm a visual arts teacher (painting-drawing and print making) in Argentina. I've been teaching since 2006, drawing, painting and engraving classes as well as hundreds of life drawing classes at big C...

About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour 30 minutes

Drawing Time!!

This time this won't be a whole tutored class but a free drawing session although there might be some tips on some of the images, things to keep in mind... who knows?
The images in this session will be different portraits to sketch for some 10-15 minutes. At the end, optionally, we'll share our works on camera.

Quick sketching is for me very helpful to learn to spot the important parts of an image and put them on the paper. Those are related to shapes, lines, inner rhythms, values, etc.

So, grab your favorite art supplies and get ready to enjoy drawing! I suggest simple sketching materials: any type of pencils, markers, ballpoint/fountain pens; drawing paper. An eraser and a sharpener are optional. If you're an experienced artist you can use watercolors, ink or what you decide. It's your choice.

Classes contents are never repeated neither are the reference images we draw from. Some images are easier than others, and even though we think it might be difficult to sketch them, think of them as challenges, to develop your skills as an artist.

This is not one of my usual tutored classes. This is a sketching session, with not many explanations. Even so, you can be a beginner student who really likes drawing to attend. The importat is to enjoy the moment, not so much the results. I'm a trained visual arts teacher working independently, without sponsors. Thanks for supporting my work.

After checking out you must receive, besides the emails from Eventbrite, an email from ZOOM with all the data to join (ID/PASSCODE/Direct Link). The passcode is always the current year, now "2025".

Organized by

Visual Arts Teacher working on online classes since 2020. I'm doing a series of Drawing and Painting Classes on Zoom which I call WAYS TO DRAW AND PAINT - WTDP - , with diverse subjects as still lifes, landscapes, animals, portraits and the whole human figure and also we work with different materials (graphite, charcoal, watercolors, colored pencils, pastels, tempera-gouache, oil, acrylics, collage and more. Some are stand alone classes, some others are weekly courses. These classes are in English language are intended mostly for beginning students, otherwise it will be announced as for intermediate/advanced students. Usually we are very few in each session, so you can ask questions and show your work on camera to get some feedback. <@dibujofranco> gmail / instagram / facebook / blogspot
