Hello, animal lovers and budding artists!

Our class is open to everyone, regardless of your current skill level. We're here to connect with like-minded individuals who share a passion for animals and want to create realistic animal drawings.

During each class, we'll dive into different drawing techniques, like hatching, cross-hatching, layering, cross-contour lines, negative space drawing, contour drawing, and even using an eraser to add highlights. What's unique about our class is that we're not just here to learn; we're here to practice these techniques and grow together.

Students are encouraged to share their work during the class, and you're more than welcome to suggest the animal we'll draw in the following sessions. Our schedule for the upcoming weeks can look like this:

Week of Jun 3 (First week of each month): Birds
Week of Jun 10 (Second week of the month): Animals that live in the water
Week of Jun 17 (Third week of the month): Pets
Week of Jun 24 (Fourth week of the month): Wild animals

But that's not all. You're encouraged to add your own background or environment to your drawings, experiment with colored pencils, or explore other coloring techniques to truly make each artwork your own. Digital tools are welcome too, so whether you prefer traditional or digital mediums, you'll find a place to create and connect with us.

Join us for an artistic journey that's as much about creating as it is about enjoying the process and making friends who share your interests.
