Description Graphite assignment for 'Drawing from the Flat', a course where we copy Bargue's master drawings. 10+ Hours.

I did NOT draw the original, this is a direct copy of a print from a very old etching. Using these plates for teaching was done in French art academies in the 1800s, thats why I do it.

The detail is better on the original, but alas it was too big to scan without possibly dimpling the paper.

Not at all I attended a year of classical art at an academy which shut its doors several years ago.

Everytime I hear that a classical academy shuts down... I get sad

I know, its a tragedy! But theres a bright side, the teachers still teach privately around They can take the building but they can't take the knowledge!
