2A01-A Friday Nights – Drawing: Draw Your Pet
-Adult- | Available
Here’s your chance to unwind from the week, enjoy an adult libation or two and settle in to create with a range of art options. No experience necessary and all levels welcome. And, all materials provided. It’s a fun time – make it a date night with your partner or BFF. Or fly solo and make new BFFs! 1 complimentary bar beverage per participant plus cash bar (19+) or unlimited soft drinks included. Please note: We are unable to provide refunds/credits/transfers for these courses.
In this fun art basics class, we'll use our pets (or pets we hope to have) as inspiration to develop our drawing skills. With a photocopy of the pet’s image, you’ll learn how to implement a drawing grid and simplify the animal’s form into easier to interpret shapes. Then we’ll draw onto mylar, using a basic left-to-right, up-down guide to measure with our eyes as we create a rudimentary outline to be shaded into four simple values. For all levels. Bring a photo to work with of your pet or a pet you’d like to have. All the other materials are provided.
Course Fee: $45 + HST. Friday.
