Organic Surface Sketching

Bring natural forms to life with rhythm and flow. Master curves, contours, and organic shapes in 3D space.

This course teaches you to capture the beauty of organic objects, from fruits and leaves to flowers and flowing forms. You’ll explore contours, depth, and perspective to move beyond flat drawings into lifelike 3D sketches. With simple techniques and guided practice, you’ll learn to express natural shapes that feel alive. By the end, you’ll create portfolio pieces that showcase your ability to sketch with rhythm, flow, and confidence.
