Description
“This class was so fun! I thought I would be a desperate failure but everything’s broken down for you, anyone can draw. Kathy’s teaching was informative and always brightened my day.”
“Consider me a slightly less terrified beginner! Kathy was so welcoming & really encouraged us to experiment & develop.”
If you write or print you can draw! Talent may speed up the process. However, drawing is a learned skill that anyone can achieve with direction and practice. Learning to draw can be the gateway to self-expression and appreciation of the world at large. The course will cover the basic drawing principles and techniques such as proportional measurement, perspective and shading. The mediums used in the course are graphite, charcoal, conté, and pen. The focus is to build perception skills and hand-eye co-ordination, because all drawing is an active way of SEEING.
Please note this is a Zoom class. The classroom link will be sent by email.
