DRAWING
class gallery
In a positive and supportive
environment, a professional artist
will teach young artists the
fundamentals of drawing while
encouraging personal creative
expression. Students will use a
variety of drawing materials such as
charcoal, oil & soft pastel,
watercolor crayon, graphite and
colored pencil. Projects specially
developed for these age groups include
exercises in proportion, composition,
light source and perspective.
Students will work from observation
and pull imagery from their
imaginations as they learn to develop
their own artistic language. This
fun-filled drawing class will send
your young artist home with a head
full of creativity and confidence!
Additional materials and projects are
planned for Dec/Jan, Feb/Mar & Apr/May
sessions this year!
