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, the use of form, shape and tone (shading), and proportional measurement. The mediums used in the course are graphite, charcoal, conté, pen and inks. The focus is building perception and techniques because drawing is an active way of SEEING.
Cost: $140.00 for 6 week + Tax (material included)
