If you have always wanted to learn how to draw, “Learning to Draw for Life” offers the perfect environment for you to pursue your goals. In this enjoyable 8-week online course, local artist Mei-Ling Ellerman teaches a curriculum that will both support and challenge you to hone your drawing skills. Carefully designed exercises and individualized feedback will strengthen your skills of observation, which will in turn rapidly improve your ability to draw accurately. In Level I, we will study aspects of contour drawing, negative space, shading, proportions, perspective, and color. You will learn the fundamentals of drawing by drawing subjects ranging from the human figure to animals and botanical drawings. You will also learn to draw with different mediums including graphite pencils, conte crayon pencils, and colored pencils. The groups are kept small (max of 6) so everyone can participate and receive ample feedback during the class. The classes will be held online on Wednesdays from 7-8:30 pm from Feb.23 through April 13. Register at https://artswayland.com/pages/learning-to-draw-for-life-virtual-classes.
