Freehand Perspective Drawing for Designers Short Course

Course description

Even if you've studied freehand drawing in the past, it's a skill that often needs refreshing. This course will focus on drawing up a room or space. You will learn the fundamentals of drawing including how to create sketch perspectives, create scale and introduce texture.

You'll leave the course having completed a number of freehand drawings, along with the thinking tools to continue your freehand practice.

Course outcomes
