Beauty is everywhere. During this workshop we will learn how to see and draw directly from life in a creative way. We will consider and analyze the following topics: composition, color and values. We will also revisit some basic practices and discuss tool care. My aim and hope is that each student will gain a greater facility and confidence working from life.

I will demonstrate and give individual instruction. We will be working with the shapes we see and draw the tone, color, edge, and different gestures that happen simultaneously. The drawing is worked on and typically finished in one session. It is a thrilling practice with endless scope for expression.
