Welcome to our one time Halloween themed pen and ink drawing class for scientific lovers and artists alike, where we will dive deeply into the mysterious world of the human body. In this class, we will focus primarily on the human skeleton and how it works. Next we will play games to assess our newly found knowledge before drawing a skull of our own in this class. This is a course that is perfect for beginning artists and specializes in using step by step drawing techniques to help us create realistic shadow, space and depth. These step by step demonstrations are meant to help blossoming artists perfect their skills. All artists are welcome to participate in this class, no matter their skill level. I will personally guide you each step of the way and will be eagerly waiting to answer your questions. The first half of class will begin with an ice breaker. Next, we will then study the amazing power of the human skeleton and then play an interactive game to assess what we have learned. After game time, we will draw and shade a skull under the guidance of a certified art educator. Each student should leave this class with a stronger sense of confidence when drawing. A variety of all different types of learners are welcome and encouraged to participate.
