Description: 

You can see it, but your hand just won't make it look like that on the paper.  In this session we will discover fun learning techniques that will help you draw exactly what you see. Using simple still life objects, and the PASS method (Proportion, Angles, Shape and Shading), your hand will learn to make marks that match what your eyes view. There is always more to see and new marks to make. Learn in a positive atmosphere, at your own pace.

• Drawing Paper 
• Toned Paper
• Pencils (2B, 2H, and 4B)
