Class Experience

Welcome to our one time Halloween themed pen and ink drawing class for science lovers and artists alike, where we will dive deeply into the scientific world of crows. In this class, we will focus primarily on the benefits of this highly misunderstood creature and then we will draw our own crow under the guidance of a certified art educator. 

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, we will then study the science behind bats before we play an interactive game. After game time, we will then draw and shade our own bats.

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.
