THIS CLASS RUNS ON TUESDAYS, APRIL 11 – 25 (3 SESSIONS) 4:00pm – 6:00pm

Drawing lessons for budding artists who are keen to develop to the next level. Direct instruction will be combined with exploratory mark-making in different media (pencil, charcoal, ink), working towards a final artwork. New students will receive an introductory session light and shading; returning students will continue on their own track. Students are encouraged to play and try out new subjects, techniques, and media. We create a relaxed atmosphere of a working art studio where we play music and talk about our art.

The values of the art room are respect and non-judgment. Your child may be asked to leave if they cannot adhere to these values.

Artists are encouraged to bring their own materials (list will be provided).

Ages: 12 – 18 Years Old
