Learning to Draw from the Ground Up

Learning to do anything means starting from the ground up - creating a good solid foundation and then building upon it, step-by-step.
That is what this beginner's drawing class does. We learn about the basic shapes, how to draw them well, and how to see them in everyday objects - so that we can also draw those objects well.
Every object is made up of basic shapes and the best way to see that is to learn 2D or flat-lay drawing, where we are looking straight on at an object and can see what it is made of.
Once we know that a soup can is made of two circles and a rectangle, for example, we are able to understand how those shapes will change and relate to each other when we deal with different points of view in follow-up, more advanced classes.
But elaborate and beautiful drawings can be done in just a straight-on perspective, and we will create some drawings that will fill you with admiration - for your own ability.
Join me to discover that drawing is a skill to be learned, not a magic birthright, and anyone can learn to draw well just by paying attention - a small enough price to pay.
