(ENDED) Landscape Drawing Sessions – Summer 2019

Description

Landscape Drawing Learning Targets

The purpose of the Landscape Drawing sessions is to understand how to create the illusion of three-dimensional space on a flat paper. Each session will focus on a different style of scenery and lighting. Pick your favorite, or join us for all 4 sessions to gain a more complete understanding of how to draw with depth. These classes are OPEN TO ALL AGES. You’re never to young or old to start learning about art.
