Methods of Perspective with Lindsay Mueller
Class | Registration opens 3/2/2026 12:00 AM EST
This course centers observation as a tool of discovery and explores perspectival strategies for conveying varied experiences through drawing and painting. Grounded in the learning of traditional techniques of depicting perspective, this course considers the conceptual implications that various perspectives have on an artwork, both historically and in contemporary practice. Spatial awareness and observational research will serve as the building blocks upon which students will utilize pencil, conte, charcoal, ink, and watercolors/gouache to create artworks that consider personal position and communicate their perspective, technically and conceptually.
This course is for intermediate students who already possess introductory drawing experience and are familiar with the drawing materials. Some prior one- and two-point perspective experience is welcome although not required. We will learn the technical aspects of perspective and apply it to creating drawings of interior and exterior spaces.
Your instructor will provide a list of materials required to participate fully in this class.
If you have any questions about specifics or what is needed week-to-week, please reach out to your instructor via the email in your confirmation letter.
