Description

DRAWING FOR PEOPLE WHO THINK THEY CAN’T DRAW (BUT ACTUALLY CAN!) AKA, INTRO TO DRAWING Start date: Monday April 25, 2022 OR Wednesday April 27, 2022 (weekly, ten weeks) End date: June 27/29, 2022 Time: 6:30-8:30pm Location: 3614 SE Division St. (Portland, OR) Cost: $360 (includes materials!) My goals for this class are to get you excited about drawing, and to break your assumptions about what drawing is. I believe that counter to popular assumption, everyone can draw. To me the key to drawing is seeing and then responding. If you can see, you can draw! This class won’t be about learning to measure perfectly, it will be about learning to see and to pay attention to your responses. We will cover various ways of looking and taking in what we see, and practice separating our “critic” self from our “expressing” self. Through this approach I hope to help get you excited about drawing, and help you begin to make drawings that “feel like you.” If you are curious about drawing I hope you will take this class. If you have always wanted to draw and have been told or have come to believe that drawing is just “not for you,” I hope you will take this class. If you have drawn for a while and are quite good but sometimes hate it, this could be the class for you. I hope that what I have to teach is useful both to people who have experience drawing, and to those who don’t. I am excited to explore, learn, and create with you! :) Sarah Levy has studied with Phil Sylvester at The Drawing Studio in Portland, OR, and got her MFA in Drawing from the New York Academy of Art. *You must be vaccinated with valid proof of vaccination to take this class.
