Beyond the Principles of Drawing
This class will emphasize exercises to teach you how to see as an artist.

You will tackle the principles of drawing, and learn how to easily draw what you really see! Learn the best tricks to apply perspective without the usual hassle and bring more depth to your work.

Your sketching ability will improve with this fun and artistically rewarding class.

Fridays

I Can't Draw a Straight Line
We will begin with the standard graphite pencils and ‘the basics’, then move into more experimental supplies such as unique papers, conte ́ crayon, pen & ink with crow quill pen, and beyond. The subject matter will range from a setup still-life to photos for reference. Learning to connect ‘what you see to what you draw’, everyone’s point of expression is unique and valid to the finished product. 
Beginning to intermediate.
