Description

This class will help you improve your drawing skills and introduce you to creative drawing approaches. We’ll begin each class by looking at different types of drawings (historical and contemporary) as context for your art making, and will discuss the many diverse processes and subjects that artists have drawn for generations. You’ll then be given a related drawing prompt for each class. These prompts will simultaneously help you to improve your observational skills, while also facilitating new and creative ways of drawing. We’ll discuss your drawings in individual and group critiques, and will explore ways of working within your environment – the spaces around you and the materials readily available. A gift card for drawing supplies will be provided for each student enrolled to supplement their drawing process. The class is suitable for all levels of experience from beginners to those looking for new ways of sparking their creativity and pushing the medium in new ways.
