This class is for beginners as well as those who would like to build stronger drawing skills. The focus will be on creating realistic pencil drawings of natural subjects.

Through a series of fun and interesting exercises and projects students will learn to see as an artist sees. Areas covered will be line, value (light and shadow) and drawing what you “see”, not what you think you see.
   
The first 4 sessions will include drawing exercises and practice. For the last 2 sessions students will put their knowledge to work as they draw a landscape scene from a photograph (similar to the drawing above).

As spring is just around the corner, we will draw a warmer scene this week. We will do the drawing of the rabbit together then the children will add whatever they would like to their picture. We will be using soft pastels to give that “furry look” to the rabbit.

Apple Blossoms


In anticipation of the arrival of Spring we will celebrate the season by painting an apple tree in bloom. This project will be painted with watercolors and the tree will be “drawn” with the aid of a soda straw. Lots of fun, proving almost anything goes in creating art.
