Line Designs: Drawing Lines and Shapes to Create Unique Art

Welcome to our line drawing class!

After introductions, we will define what a line is in art terms and draw different types of lines to create a chart. Using this and my high-contrast line drawing examples, artists will start their own artwork creating line designs and experiment with their own patterns.

The possibilities are endless and the designs are always unique! I encourage artists to share ideas with me throughout the class. This type of art is very calming and grounding, so there is an added benefit to learning about these patterns!

Also, please remember that all artists learn at their own pace, so some may not complete their work during class. I will assess where everyone is several times to gauge the pace and adjust as time allows. I will provide many opportunities to view the letters and ask questions as they arise. Thank you!
