Class Description:

Join d’Art Associate Artist Jenn Hilliard in this highly requested Workshop Series! You’ll work with Jenn in a group setting with individual instruction given as needed where you can explore your beginner skills of sketching or begin to expand and refine an intermediate skill level.

Session 1: For the first class in this series, the class as a whole will use a provided image as a reference. The goal for this exercise is to learn how to line up your eye with your hand and draw what you see.

Session 2: During the second session, students will reproduce any image they choose. Again, the aim is to coordinate the hand and eye to create a coherent image. The class will also vote on a location suitable for drawing from life for the final session.

Session 3: For the final class you’ll meet up at a chosen location (possibly not d’Art) to draw what you see from live surroundings. The aim is to have a finished piece or well laid-out image.
