Class Experience
Drawing is the most valuable visual arts skill and is needed for all artistic disciplines. This course is perfect for beginner adult students looking for a strong foundation, it’s a great skill for anyone working in film, graphic design, the fashion industry, or those who work digitally. Learn to use perspective, understand shape language, create proper proportions, shade on an accurate value scale, and draw from observation. Each class builds confidence in students' technical skills and hand-eye coordination.

gives me a structured time to be creative

Is there any way you can offer weekend afternoon classes for adults? I work at night, so I can't attend anything besides the morning classes on weekends, but they always fall during the time of a children's class. The kids are loud, running around, and very distracting. I have to put my headphones on to focus, and then I can't even hear the instructor.
