This is an observational drawing class that takes the basics drawing concepts and works toward developing personal style and executing finished drawings. We will focus on still lives, interiors and mixed media this session. We learn a new drawing concept and practice it with exercises and then work toward a finished piece over the course of two weeks. We will work with value, composition, perspective, mark making and more. 

This class is for anyone who feels pretty comfortable with drawing concepts and materials and wants to be pushed to make bolder work.
