Course Description

Drawing 1: Do you like to draw? Do you wish your drawing skills were more developed? This course

starts off working with line, builds up to shading and then we explore color. We work with

pen, pencil, ink, charcoal, pastels and anything else you can draw with. This course will

teach you how to observe closely and to see as an artist. A weekly journal is required for this

class and all grade levels are welcome.
