Dog portrait by student Alex Zolotov
June 16th- August 18th
3:00pm-5:00pm and or 5:30pm-7:30pm
All ages 10yr olds-Adult for a unique learning experience! Study with your kids or grandkids!
Sign up week by week.
This class is for students who have always wanted to learn to draw, but where nervous about trying. Drawing is a skill which can be taught through various “learning to see” techniques and the willingness and interest to practice, practice, practice. We will be working mainly in pencil, a little charcoal. I look forward to teaching you how to draw and you will have success!

A drawing board. They are usually 18” x 24'
An array of pencils ranging from HB to 9B and some 2 - 4 H pencils. Try to buy a nice set that contains all the numbers.
A White, acrylic or plastic eraser.
An eraser pencil. Those are the size of a pencil and have a white tube eraser inside a plastic, hollow tube. You click up or down to adjust how much eraser you want to use
