NMA / New Masters Academy - Complete Sight-Size Drawing Course

https://www.nma.art/v3/course-catalog/courses/334280/

Academies and ateliers around the world are increasingly teaching an American realist approach to drawing and painting known as sight-size. Taught today by the students of American artists R. H. Ives Gammell and Richard Lack, this popular approach has been exported throughout the world and is now taught in dozens of schools.
In sight-size, the easel and the subject matter are positioned in such a way that the artist makes one-to-one horizontal comparisons for a high level of optical accuracy.
Hosted by Florence Academy of Art founder Daniel Graves, this massive course is the most comprehensive breakdown of the sight-size approach ever produced online.
Senior sight-size instructors, Leo Mancini-Hresko and Joe Altwer will teach you the materials, set-up, exercises, and process which are taught in top ateliers from the comfort and convenience of home. You can use course either as an alternative to attending an atelier or academic art school or as a preparation or even supplement to one.
You will utilize the historical Charles Bargue plates, plaster casts and live models to develop your drawings from simple light-and-shade straight line patterns, to full beautifully rendered tonal works.
By the end of this course, you’ll be an expert in the approach and be ready to take on Sight Size Painting Course, scheduled for a 2020 release.
