Join classical drawing expert Domiane Forte for a day-long intensive course on drawing the Ionic Order.  AIA credits available, please inquire.
Reading: The American Vignola: A Guide to the Making of Classical Architecture by William R. Ware
REQUIRED materials to bring to class: 11x14 spiral bound sketchpad/notebook (Canson is recommended brand-available at Blick's art materials), drawing pencils (2H to 3B), erasers, straightedge, ruler/scale, compass 
RECOMMENDED materials: Circle & ellipse templates, proportional dividers, 45 degree triangle

This one-day course provides an introduction to the vocabulary of classical architecture through free hand drawing.  Students will learn to draw the classical moldings and then study the Ionic Order by laying out an Ionic column, entablature, and pediment.  The class will conclude with a sketch problem, which combines the above elements to create a facade of a small building.  Issues of proportion, traditional construction techniques, and ornamentation will also be discussed.

The course will run from 9am-5pm (with a 1-hour lunch break) on Saturday at Ft. Mason: Building C, Room 205.  Lunch is not provided, but there are several restaurants near Ft. Mason.
