IMPORTANT NOTE: The third and final drawing location (Hub Junction) is where the workshop will end at 4:30 pm. Once the workshop has ended, it takes an average hiker about 30+ minutes to get back to the original meeting location. Despite the workshop ending, I am happy to hike back with the group and answer any questions along the way.

BRIEF WORKSHOP OVERVIEW:

This workshop will include periodic stops for group teaching sessions, followed by individual drawing time with personalized one-on-one instruction. You will be introduced to beginner level drawing techniques that will be put into practice during the workshop. *Attendants with more advanced drawing experience (or who have attended my 8-week drawing course), will receive instruction specifically tailored to their drawing level.
