Foundations of Drawing  Register with Jeaniemayknart@yahoo.com
In this class, each student's ability to make, look at, and talk about art is emphasized. Through explorations in value, line, composition, perspective, color, and content, students will discover the excitement of drawing. Most class work is from observation (interesting still life set-ups). Each class includes at least one group critique when students learn to look at and talk about each others drawings. They learn to have confidence in their own ability to draw as well as seeing “what makes a drawing work.”

Each month will have a different focus, concentrating on new drawing materials and content. Continuing students will begin to develop and incorporate individual interests and meaning into their work. New students are welcome to join in at the beginning of any monthly session. We'll explore drawing with charcoal, oil pastel, pencil, watercolor, collage,  and other alternative art materials. No previous art or drawing experience is required; projects can be modified for all levels of art and drawing experience.
