About Vivek Patil
Graphite & Charcoal Studio is run by Vivek Patil — resident artist at Bhuvi by Amsha and passionate art educator. After a hugely successful Summer Drawing Classes programme, the studio now runs year-round every Saturday.
"Every perfect drawing is built on two things — a perfect outline and perfect shading. That is it. Nothing else."
The goal is simple: by end of the year every student should be able to draw realistic portraits of their choice, with smooth shading, confident perspectives, and a strong understanding of light and shadow.
Curriculum
Four progressive terms, each building on the last. Every student reaches the same goal by March — regardless of where they started.
Term 1 · Jul – Sep
Pencil grip, line quality, value scales, hatching, blending, sphere shading, eye, nose, lips, ear and face proportions using Loomis method.
Term 2 · Oct – Dec
Full face portraits from reference, hair texture, grid method, skin texture, dramatic lighting and chiaroscuro technique.
Term 3 · Jan – Mar
Charcoal techniques, kneadable eraser highlights, animal portraits, reflective surfaces and a year-end showcase with certificates.
