Foundations of Drawing

Whether you identify as a seasoned artist or someone who can’t draw a stick figure, this is the class for you! Come spend two hours playing with visual thinking. During this time, we will work through 4 different exercises from Betty Edwards’ popular book, Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain. In between the exercises, we will discuss foundational concepts of drawing.

Basic materials will be provided, but feel free to bring your own if you have favorites. Please note that the focus of this class is process and learning. You might not have a masterpiece to take home, but you should leave with renewed concepts of line, shape, and art.
