Description

Taught by Laura Levine. This course introduces the fundamentals of drawing and painting from direct observation. Open to all skill levels, it focuses on techniques for creating the illusion of depth, developing spatial awareness, and building strong compositions. Students draw and paint from a variety of subjects, including still life, costumed figures, and outdoor landscapes (weather permitting). The class begins with drawing and gradually moves into painting, balancing technical skill with personal expression. Working from life helps strengthen perception, accuracy, and creative confidence in both drawing and painting. Oil paint is recommended, though any paint medium is welcome. 5-week series Thursdays, 1pm – 4pm February 5 – March 5 Members $240 / Nonmembers $280
