First Marks: Foundational Drawing Skills (Drawing 101)

Instructor: Elaine Nguyen

Time: 6:30pm -8:30 pm

This six-session, in person drawing class at Root Division (1131 Mission St.)  is an introductory course, so no experience is necessary. Each week, we’ll tackle one building block of drawing –line, shape, perspective, value, texture composition–so by the final session you’ll have a finished piece (or more)!
A material list will be included upon registration.

We partner with ARCH Art Supplies who creates an affordable class kit; the kit can be purchased here. Note: There will be no class on March 12.
