Join us for a crash course in drawing! Each week will cover a different fundamental topic: drawing basics, line, space, value, measuring, perspective, and more. This is a great class for a beginner, or for a more advanced artist looking to review the fundamentals and pick up some new tips!

This class is also an excellent complement for painting students who want to become more confident in their drawing skills. We will focus on observational drawing through a combination of exercises and longer projects. All levels will be welcomed and encouraged in our supportive environment.
