Drawing with Color *In-Person*

We usually think of drawing with lines. In this class, we’ll focus on color shapes to help us understand and draw what we see. We will learn about color mixing, using warm and cool colors to create volume, separating objects, and creating space by showing differences in value and issues of composition. We’ll concentrate on the strength that color gives to our drawing, using your choice of pastels, oil pastels, or colored pencils. Some drawing experience is useful but not necessary.
