This course introduces you to the basics of shape and form. This will help improve your drawing skills and help you make your paintings look more three-dimensional. This course is a subset of the more advanced courses in the Form and Shape categories. The topics chosen in this course are a starting point. There is a lot more to learn, but these are the most important things to start with.

In this course you will learn:

• the critical step of making a 'two-value statement' to describe a form
• the three types of lighting situations and when to use them to better describe the forms you are painting
• the single most important skill you need to acquire to make your drawing more accurate
• the 'glass drawing' technique to help overcome roadblocks to accurate drawing
