This workshop meets virtually on March 29th, April 5th, 12th, and 19th from 6 – 8:00 PM.

The workshop is a dive into figure drawing and how we can utilize this practice in our sketchbooks and daily lives when we don’t have time to sit down or hire a figure model. We will go over gestural drawing, drawing people in motion, portraiture, and sketchbook practices using traditional and nontraditional mediums. This is meant for high school students who are hoping to build their portfolios, people who are just beginning to dip their toes into the fine art world, artists/musicians/writers with a nonvisual-arts focus, and people who want to practice their drawing skills even when art isn’t a primary focus.

Session 1 is “Still Life,” Session 2 is “Gestural Drawing,” Session 3 is “Landscape,” and Session Four is “Portraiture.”
