How important is learning to draw?
Drawing is a necessary fundamental basis for all art forms including animation and concept design, graphic design, architecture, sculpture, industrial design, and representational painting. Animation and movie studios value artists trained in the classic tradition. Even Walt Disney encouraged his animators to regularly go out and sketch outdoors from life. How to apply:
The criteria for entrance will not only be an ability to draw but more importantly evidence of a curiosity and desire to develop and try new skills. To ascertain this, a face-to-face meeting with a series of drawings or portfolio and/or sketchbooks will be arranged at the beginning of the term prior to course commencement. The interview dates are stated on the schedule above. To ensure your place on this date, a booking by phone or email is needed. Contact Manuela Pilz at manuelapilz.arts@gmail.com for arranging interviews and for bookings. For more information you can contact Manuela or Leoni at leoni@artvillage.com.au Mobile: 0466662712
Who should apply:
Any young artist 11-21 year olds. No previous experience in classical drawing is required but applicants that can demonstrate an existing commitment and passion for drawing and will enjoy a thorough yet exciting drawing programme are encouraged to contact us. Mission and Tutoring with Manuela Pilz
Our purpose is to train students in the skills and techniques associated with creating images that appear real to the viewer. These courses will be skills-based programmes which will give students a core body of knowledge in representational art by the age of 18. The tutor, award winning artist Manuela Pilz, will guide students through various drawing techniques and exercises that are a derived from her own personal art training and experience gained in Australia and abroad.
