Intro to Drawing

Learn how to draw what you see using shape, form, light, and shadow. Join us to learn the basics of drawing objects from perception, using various forms of charcoal, erasers, and newsprint. We will use multiple techniques, including measuring and rendering through highlight and shadow, to capture the proper proportions and volume of our subjects, which will primarily be still lifes. Please be aware of our youth policy. This class is for adults, as well as children 12 and older. All materials will be provided.
