A Beginner-Friendly Guide to Seeing & Sketching!
Welcome to Drawing 101, a relaxed, supportive class designed to help you build confident drawing skills from the ground up. Whether you're brand new to drawing or returning after a long break, this class will help you slow down, look closely, and really see like an artist.
In this encouraging, hands-on course, you’ll learn to work with the essential building blocks of drawing:
✨ Form & Shape – Understand the difference between the two and how simple shapes transform into believable forms.
✨ Value & Contrast – Explore shading techniques that help your drawings pop off the page with depth and clarity.
✨ Two “Magic Tools” of Drawing – Discover how light and shadow shape everything you see—and how to use a consistent light source to make your objects look truly 3D.
🎨 What You’ll Do:
✏️ Contour Drawings
Practice slow, mindful line work to improve your hand–eye coordination and observation skills.
🌀 Create 3D Shapes
Turn circles into spheres, squares into cubes, and triangles into cones as you learn how light defines form.
🌄 Landscape & Still Life Studies
Apply your new skills to real subjects as you sketch from simple still life setups and explore the bigger shapes and values of a landscape.
By the end of the class, you'll have a solid drawing foundation—and the confidence to keep creating.
Come ready to explore, experiment, and enjoy the magic of drawing!
