Sketching

Sketching

CA$0.00

Learn techniques for sketching, drawing, and colouring in pencil. Students will follow the instructor in step-by-step lessons on how to draw various subjects. Students will gain a better awareness of simple perspective and proportion, gain more precise fine motor control, and observation skills.

This class focuses on drawing in pencils. If you are looking for a more general class where students do a combination of drawing, painting, and crafty stuff, check out Drawing & Painting or Mixed Media.
