Have you ever wondered how the array of pencil grades: H, B, HB, F, 4B, 8B...applies to shading in a practical sense? Is there such an effect of "warm" and "cool" tones within the tradition of graphite drawing? How can comprehensive material awareness heighten your own system of shading? This drawing course is designed to walk students through certain procedures and strategies for achieving successful tonal values in their drawings.

“Dan’s graphite layering course is the single most informative, inspiring, and growth-inciting course I have ever taken in my studies across multiple fields. He is a master practitioner not just of art, but of empathic teaching, and you will benefit immensely from these dual expertise’s. I know that this course is a significant investment, but as someone who has paid many thousands of dollars for educational workshops, I can tell you that this is one of those courses that will pay for itself, in more ways than one.
I recommend this course to anyone who is looking to study their Mark making, hatch, tonal understanding, and of course layering. This course has taught me so much about control and patience with my pencils, in addition to being a window into the mysterious "middle value tones" that evade us so easily.”
