This basic drawing class is for those who seek to sharpen skills to create better paintings, or to learn to draw with different media, techniques and styles. We will stress the importance of sketchbook drawing daily to understand the importance of the "quick sketch" and "seeing in a new way". We will use pen and ink, pen and brush, pencil and charcoal. Materials list will be provided to registrants. (Some drawing skills preferred).

Emily is a delightful teacher, passionate about teaching art skills. She has a Master’s Degree in Education from Boston University and is a member of the Depot Square Gallery. She plans to introduce you to many different drawing media, teach some of the basics of "seeing" the subject anew, perspective, shadows and arranging compositions. She’ll lead you in some fun right-brain exercises and get you into the 5-minute-a-day sketchbook habit with a good quality ink pen that feels so right that you’ll easily fall in love with the process of drawing. If you’re a painter, discover the connection between a good drawing and improving one’s painting skills.
