Upcoming dates:
- Thursday Dec 14, 6:30-8:30pm: Symbolic Still Life: Develop your drawing skills at this still life drawing class. We will draw an arrangement made up of objects that historically symbolize health, good fortune, and happiness for the year ahead.
Duration: 2 hours
Description:
Whether you draw regularly or are just getting started, Sketchbook Club is a fun way to grow your own creative practice in the company of others. These classes are materials-based, as we explore everything from watercolours and gouache to charcoal and pastel. Ideal for beginners who are looking for an introduction to a variety of media, and for those with more experience who are looking for inspiration and community.
We’ll begin with warm-up activities and a demonstration. Each session, Sarah will demo a different art material or technique for you to try. After plenty of time to draw together, we will close with a show and tell, as we share our sketches with the group.
Materials: Please bring your own sketchbook, we will provide all other materials.
