Drawing is the foundation of the visual arts and anyone can learn to draw! This class will build a solid foundation of drawing skills to strengthen your ability to express your creativity!

Copying old masters' drawings is a time-tested discipline. The experience of copying from master artists, not only exposes students to classical drawing techniques, but also to the masters' thinking process. You can also learn how the artist developed an idea from beginning to end. To reap this benefit, however, you can't just engage in mindless copying.

In this drawing class we will explore why the artist did this or that, and why it works. If you can pinpoint specific strategies used in the drawings, then you can transfer these techniques to your own drawings. It's a fun way to learn about Leonardo da Vinci and to improve your own drawing skills.
