Large & Loose - Free Drawing Workshops
Discover the joy of creativity with our Large & Loose Drawing Workshops led by our renowned art instructor, Alesha Buczny. These sessions offer a unique opportunity to explore artistic expression in a supportive environment. Join us at 10:00 AM to master the intricate details of drawing an Owl, capturing its wisdom and grace through fluid, expressive strokes. In the afternoon, at 1:00 PM, immerse yourself in the delicate art of drawing a Flower, learning to convey its beauty and vibrancy on paper.
Participants will work on large grey-toned paper using charcoal and white Conté, providing a unique medium to explore light and shadow. Alesha will guide you through each step, ensuring you gain essential tools and processes that will benefit your future drawings. Due to the personalized attention provided, spaces are limited, so be sure to register early to secure your spot. Whether you are a seasoned artist or a curious beginner, these workshops promise to enhance your skills and inspire your imagination.
