Drawing

Joann Neufeld

Need a jump start to get your creative juices flowing, or a refresher on the basics? Join our innovative and enthusiastic instructor, Joann Neufeld as she guides you through the fundamentals of line, shape, composition, and shading. Joann will explore and demonstrate drawing techniques and help awake your inner artist. Using demonstration videos and art history as our inspiration, you will develop skills in composition and learn to 'see' the way that artists see. Which is your favorite: still life, landscape, portrait, or figure drawing? You also choose the material that you prefer to work with - pencil, pastel, charcoal, colored pencils, or watercolors. Joyful creativity!
