Let’s Begin Drawing

What is “looking”? Can you really see? How do you transfer what you see to what you are drawing? In this class, we will demonstrate the various techniques of drawing using the textbook Drawing on the right side of the brain. At the end of each class, students will share their work with the class and talk about the creative process from their point of view and their individual self-expression.
