Through guided lessons and hands-on exploration, you’ll develop skills in line, value, proportion, perspective, composition, and color theory. We’ll work with a range of materials including pencil, charcoal, watercolor, and acrylic, to help you discover your visual language and gain comfort across mediums.

This class invites artists of all levels to slow down, look closely, and translate what they see into expressive, accurate drawings.
Working from real-life subjects, including still life arrangements, natural forms, and the human figure- you’ll explore essential techniques like gesture, proportion, contour, shading, and composition. Emphasis is placed on developing your ability to truly see, not just as an artist, but as an observer of form, light, and space.
Through a mix of guided exercises, demos, and longer studies, you’ll build confidence in drawing what’s in front of you while cultivating a deeper connection between hand, eye, and mind. This is a focused yet supportive space to slow down and refine your skills, whether you’re new to observational drawing or looking to reconnect with foundational practice.
