introductory classes

These are serious & fun sessions in drawing and painting that are designed to cover the information you need to start – or restart – a visual practice. Maybe you used to draw, or you have always wanted to paint, or maybe you are a painter that wants to polish your drawing skills – whatever the reason, these classes will give you a little know-how to move confidently into your own sketchbook or paint palette.

My classes have a relaxed and conversational vibe geared for adults. They are structured to give you enough information to get started, and inspiration to explore while building your confidence with the materials. Based on interest, I will try to offer each of them monthly.

Each session will focus on the use of one medium at a time, as noted in each class title. I provide the supplies for the exercises presented, so you can get to know the mediums and the surfaces for each. This allows you to try things out before investing in your own supplies. I’ll also help you develop solid studio habits, which is good for everyone!
