Practice Makes Progress: Adult / Teen Class

Over the 5 Thursday's in July, we will dive back into the world of drawing, one step at a time.

Wether you are new into sketching, or you are looking for a reason to get back into it, this supportive class is just for you!

With each week designed to focus on a different key element of drawing, come along and watch your how quickly these simple learnings transform your art into something a 'talented' artist made:

Week Objectives:

• Week 1: Learning and Seeing

  • Slow down your observations, notice shapes, and remember how important angles and edges are in your work.

• Week 2: Breaking Down Complex Objects

  • Identify proportions and use simple geometric shapes to make simplicity out of complexity.

• Week 3: Using Light and Shadow

  • Values (light and dark) create the illusion of 3D shapes, and artists focus on light, not objects, to bring a piece to life.

• Week 4: Aligning Perspective and Shape

  • Use objects and their relationships to each other to create depth.

• Week 5: Using Observation, Composition and Personal Expression

  • Drawing is a skill that improves through practice. Talent actually has nothing to do with it.
