I’m teaching “Drawing for the Absolute and Utter Beginner”  this fall, from Sept 25 to Dec. 11,Tuesdays 9:30 to 12:30 – a class designed for people with absolutely no previous art experience.

Consider this an invitation to come and learn to draw, to see what’s uniquely yours and enjoy the journey of discovery that drawing, an accessible skill, our common language, allows you to enjoy!.

Enough years of teaching this class have happily confirmed for me that anyone  can develop their drawing potential within a few hours if they  use the step- by -step method we follow in this class.

I was talking to a former drawing student and fellow artist the other day at an art opening about drawing, and what made the practice of drawing so powerful and amazing. We came up with a pretty good conclusion: drawing carries new ideas from inside us to the conscious surface of our lives in a way no other technique allows. Drawing enables you to access parts of yourself that would otherwise never come to light or be revealed, and  the results are always so surprising.  For my friend and I this was the essence of what made it such a powerful tool.
