Drawing for the Absolute Beginner

Adult Multi-Week | FULL

Would you like to begin to draw? Learn the basics of drawing and composition including line, shape, space, and value. We will start at the beginning, welcoming first-time artists or those returning to drawing after a long time. Drawing can be a wonderful way to decompress and transition to a different headspace. In addition to learning fundamental skill sand techniques, we will also focus on learning more about ourselves and the imagery we like an a welcoming and laid-back environment.

  • This class is best suited for people who have never drawn before. It is meant to be a welcoming place for people who may be intimidated by learning the new skill of how to draw.

    Accessibility notes: Many artmaking processes require the ability to sit or stand for extended periods of time, fine motor skills/finger dexterity, repetitive motions, vision, and some amount of physical strength. VisArts values making classes accessible to everyone, and is always happy to work with students to make accommodations when possible. Please reach out to info@visarts.org with specific questions related to accessibility or accommodations.

    Classes are confirmed one week prior to the start date. In order to help us confirm classes, please register as early as possible.
    Due to set of stairs, Drawing North is not wheelchair accessible.


    On-site courses do not come with studio access outside of class time. Paid open studio access is available through our Studio Access Program. Please visit visarts.org for more information.

Hi, I'm Tori! I love to paint and talk about art! In my work I try to reuse supplies and repurpose old fabrics to give them new life. My subject matter usually leans toward domestic scenes such as the home, and the incorporation of fibers help bring an expressive quality to my work. I love all mediums, but I use a lot of paper in my work in different collage forms.
