Description
As an artist John Coburn has spent 40 years drawing on big city streets, often people will say “I wish I was creative, I wish I could draw.” John’s response is “I can teach you how to draw in 5 minutes.” That’s what this workshop is all about – simply opening your eyes and connecting what you see and letting that vision flow onto the paper. In art terms this is called “Blind Contour Drawing “ – where you literally don’t look at the paper when you draw! This loose technique is a lot of fun for any age and John guarantees it will inspire you!
