SUMMARY:CAM Studio Course: Introduction to Drawing from Sculpture with Leon Doucette
DESCRIPTION:In this six-week course (February 1 – March 7\, 2024) students will learn the mechanics of drawing from life while working directly from pieces in the Cape Ann Museum’s sculpture collection. Lessons will emphasize the importance of structure\, seeing\, and understanding how light and form interact. The course will include instruction\, demonstrations\, and of course drawing! Students will make both shorter sketches and longer finished drawings and will be encouraged to apply the concepts they learn to their work. \nClasses will be led by artist and Cape Ann Museum Assistant Curator\, Leon Doucette. Leon was born in Gloucester and is a graduate of the New Hampshire Institute of Art. He has served on the Cape Ann Museum’s curatorial staff since 2011 and is a practicing artist\, working in both oil paint and charcoal. He has exhibited throughout New England\, as well as in New York\, California\, and Washington D.C. He is a recipient of the First Place Drawing award at the Portrait Society of America’s Annual International Portrait Competition and is a Guild of Boston Artists Gold Medalist. \nStudents of all drawing levels (from beginner to advanced) are encouraged to attend. One-on-one discussions will be tailored to students’ skill levels.

SUMMARY:CAM Studio Course: Introduction to Portrait Drawing with Amy Sudarsky
DESCRIPTION:This course provides an opportunity to draw directly from the collection of sculptures and paintings in the Cape Ann Museum. Students will learn how to draw human and animal forms three-dimensionally and will gradually merge this approach with their innate style. First\, the class will focus on the basic planes of the human head by drawing self-portraits and referencing the human skull. Moving out into the galleries\, the class will explore light and shadow followed by expression and composition. Students will also have the opportunity to reference materials from CAM’s Library & Archives\, including the Charles S. Hopkinson Collection. \nAmy Sudarsky is a figurative painter who has exhibited in Boston\, New York and San Francisco. For more than 35 years\, she has taught painting and drawing courses at Boston University\, Lesley University\, The Art Institute of Boston and Washington University in St. Louis.
