The Bargue Method

This past September I incorporated the Charles Bargue Drawing course into our drawing curriculum. I’m pleased to report the results were incredible. The Bargue Drawing Course is a complete reprint of the famous, late nineteenth century drawing course. It contains almost two hundred reproductions of master drawings and paintings for copying by students.
I am pleased to present a drawing by my student Dan Cerullo. His first time with formal instruction, Dan’s been studying with us since July. With aspirations to attend school for architecture, the Bargue course provides him with valuable portfolio pieces to present to the top-notch art schools out there.
Don’t misunderstand, this is far from a magic formula for drawing. The success in this drawing method lies in the fact that Dan is a disciplined student and puts a lot of time in making the drawing work. No magic formula, just a lot of hard work. My guess is Dan will have a lot of schools to pick from!
