Drawing & Painting Workshopw/Annie ThompsonA six (6) session courseNo class on 3/15
Annie Thompson
This 8-week course is for beginners who want to explore drawing and oil painting, and for more experienced artists who want to improve their artistic skills. Using still-life compositions, students will learn about form, space, design, value, and color through working observationally. In addition, the instructor will introduce a variety of artists who are representative of the lessons provided, and conduct in-process and final critiques for a helpful synopsis of the student’s progress and ideas. The class will be broken up into four weeks of drawing and four weeks of painting, but the student is open to work in any medium if they prefer.
