Basic drawing
​
Based on the important and still valid classical principle 'drawing precedes painting',Sebastian Schoen a 10-part lesson in which the proven, so-called Bargue method is used as a drawing technique. Charles Bargue and Jean-Léon Gérôme introduced this technique into painting education at the end of the 19th century. Gérôme was the most renowned artist-teacher in France in his time. He set up this method with his colleague Bargue.
​
Structure of the lesson
​
During the lessons we will work with an existing Bargue image that we learn to copy in charcoal. We then work with nitram charcoal and charcoal pencils from the General brand in different hardnesses. It also shows how to sharpen these sticks and pencils to a nice point. We work with the so-called Sight-Size method. This means that you copy the image 1 on 1.
It is one of the best ways to master drawing, and is also highly recommended as a basis for making a good painting.
You start by setting up the image in straight, simplified lines. You continue to work on these lines until you have obtained the correct shape.
When it comes time to fill in the notes, this also goes from large to increasingly refined.
This method teaches you how to simplify a shape. You work with a plumb line from which you measure.
But you also regularly distance yourself from your work, so that you can assess whether your measurements were correct. This way you learn to trust your own perception and develop the necessary sense of form and tone.
Then painting with oil paint will also be a lot easier after this.
