Adults and teens ages 14 and up come learn new skills from a practiced artist. Classes are geared toward beginners and promote learning in a relaxed and encouraging environment. All materials will be provided but bring your own if you’d like.
Mindful Drawing (14+)
Learning how to draw mindfully is an approach to drawing that is contemplative, nurturing and restorative for many artists. Each session includes a variety of both observational and imaginative drawing exercises using graphite pencil, pen and charcoal. Learn techniques to ‘draw what you see’ in contour, values and textures. Topics include drawing from life, botanical subjects, landscapes and mandalas.
