Description:
Have you ever said, “I can’t even draw a stick figure!”? If you think you can’t draw, be prepared to change your mind – Julia Carpenter will take you on a joy-filled Discovery and you’ll see that you really can draw! That’s right, in just one day, you’ll go from saying “ME?? I can’t draw!” to “ Hey look! I did this! I can draw!”

Julia will teach you how to “see”, exercising a different part of your brain than you usually use. Drawing the world around you is about being truly “in the moment” – the kind of focus that brings joy, relaxation and satisfaction. Drawing also teaches you so much about WHAT it is you are drawing – learning directly from the world around you. Every person is capable of this, it just takes some teaching and some practice.  In this one-day class, you’ll also touch on the basics of line, shape, value and form.
