Fill Your Sketchbook: Improve Your Drawing Skills One Sketch at a Time (Teens)

NOTE: If your learner is interested in this class but there are currently no times scheduled that work for them, PLEASE reach out to me - I would be very happy to arrange a time that will work better for their schedule!

This class is great for anyone, whether you are a beginner or have more advanced experience in drawing. Regularly sketching is a great way to improve your drawing skills no matter what level you are at.

In order to get better at any skill you need to practice, and that's what your sketchbook is for! This ongoing course is full of sketchbook exercises to improve your drawing skills. Each week we will focus on a different type of drawing exercise or set of drawing exercises. Students will be encouraged to also practice these skills outside of class.

Each student will be expected to have a sketchbook and pencils before class begins in order to participate.

NOTE: Learners should be able to use drawing tools without assistance.
