This class will teach you the reasons and the skills to develop a daily sketchbook practice. Sketching is the foundation of all art because it teaches us to see our world like an artist. In this class we will learn basic drawing techniques in pencil, charcoal, and pen. We will work from life and from photos, learning perspective, rendering, and gesture. Committing to a sketchbook habit will change your art and your life for the better.
