Drawing for Enjoyment and Practice with Doug Ritter
July 13-16, 1:30-4:30pm
$250

Have you longed to develop fundamental drawing skills or hone your ability to create from seeing? Are you looking for an approach to drawing that connects you to process and observation? In this four-day drawing workshop participants will work to achieve representation in a variety of drawing media. A special emphasis will be on the underlying principles of form comprehension, proportion, and perspective - all of which inform clarity of vision. Sharpen up, slow down, and open up your vision to the spectacular close at hand. Subjects include still life, landscape, and the figure.
