 Morning class, I'm Will Kemp from Will Kemp Art School and I'd like to introduce you to Will Kemp Drawing School. I've designed this for people that think they'll never ever be able to draw, but they've got something inside of them that they always draw towards a pencil just to give it a go. I'm a professional portrait painter and landscape painter, but I've also got a background in education working with schools and museums for many years. I've studied in Italy at the Angel Academy and with Nick Beer of the Sarm Studio, studying classical sight-size portraiture. I've designed this course so that anyone, no matter what level you are, can really get to grit with drawing and understanding how to see something like an artist. When you pick up a pencil for the first time and have a go, especially if you've had a long break from drawing, often the results are disappointing to say the least. You think your drawing is just like a kid's done them and you get disheartened very quickly. What I want to show to you is kind of the secrets behind drawing, how you can start to engage with the right side of your brain so you can really begin to understand how drawing works. Once you know the theory behind it, there's like a mental clip and you go, oh that's how you do it and this is what you can learn on this course. So I can give you the confidence that you need to be able to draw whatever you want, whenever you want and the real trick here is learning to see like an artist. Once you can see like an artist, then you can become an artist. Holding your pencil, learning how to sharpen it, choosing the right paper, has nothing to do with it. The real trick is to learn to know what you're looking at before you even pick up the pencil. So now we're going to go on a creative journey together, we're going to build your confidence whether you're coming back to drawing or this is the first time you've even picked up a pencil. So grab a broom, maybe a biscuit or you might need it. Grab a pencil and we'll learn some of the theories behind what you can't draw and how you can learn how to draw.
