Class Experience

Intermediate - Advanced Level
Calling all bird lovers! Students who enjoy drawing birds or animals in general will find this class useful for progressing with their art. Students will follow along with step by step instruction. Each week, we will focus on a specific body part or type of bird in a new pose. This is a laid back class where students will be encouraged to chat with their peers as we draw. A list of class materials required to complete this class is posted in the "supply list" section below. At the end of each class, students may request a species/breed or pose to focus on in the next meeting. Students do not have to be a bird expert to enjoy this class but may find they pick up fun traits or names of species they were previously unfamiliar with as we draw them.
