This series is every Tuesday from 11/3 – 11/24
You will not be able to sign up for the following classes in this series separately.
This class is for beginners to advanced; no previous experience is necessary. Russell will be teaching how to draw from observation in the botanical gardens. We will walk through the gardens and find a plant or corner of the garden that inspires us to draw. Next, we will sketch our inspirational plant/setting in pencil and learn about value, composition, and texture. Finally, we will learn how to use oil pastels on black paper and create a drawing in color.
