Course Description: This six-week graphite drawing course strengthens the most important drawing skill of all: accurate observation. Designed for adults, the class helps students learn to see proportion, value, edges, and relationships more clearly, building confidence in their drawing foundation.
Through guided exercises and from-life subjects, students practice slowing down, observing carefully, and making thoughtful adjustments as they work. With an emphasis on process over polish, the skills gained translate easily to any drawing medium.
Ideal for beginners, returning artists, and anyone preparing to move into more advanced drawing or color-based courses.
No prior experience required.
