Evening drawing class begins in
October 27.
Get inspired by the tape art drawings at the link above or check
out this new New York Times opinion piece by
James McMullen.
He describes drawing as a phantom skill that many of us remember
enjoying in childhood but have lost with lack of practice.
Our evening drawing class is designed for older children and
adults interested in focusing on drawing from observation and
strategies for seeing.
