To my delight, taking a drawing class online is FAR MORE FUN than I imagined it was going to be! The hours flew by and the class is giving me motivation to rejoin the world outside my kitchen.
Everything about this class is enjoyable! From a practical standpoint there are advantages to being able to sit at my desk and have anything I need easily within reach, but the sense of genuine human connection is what intrigued me the most..

Online Drawing Workshops
Learning to draw is learning a new way to see. The process starts with sharpening your perception and acquiring new tools for observation. As you begin to observe more thoroughly, noticing things like negative space and tonality, your drawings take on life. As your perceptual skills are trained, not only will your drawings improve but you might start to notice new shapes and lines within your everyday environment.
The field of drawing encompasses a wide range of materials and techniques and the subject matter is infinite. Anything you can observe, or imagine, can be drawn. Some of our workshops are highly specific, such as Anatomy Drawing, focusing on a particular subject or medium with an expert artist. Other workshops are more general, providing a perfect introduction for a beginner, such as Drawing from Observation.
Whether you are interested in learning cross-hatching with ink, shading with charcoal, or just breaking loose with pastels, we have the right online drawing class for you. It is possible to join most courses from whatever level you are starting you at. If you need help selecting the perfect workshop, just get in touch.

Online Painting Workshops
“I learned so much about the world of colors during these online painting classes! I actually learned to paint things that I never would have dreamt of being able to master. I enjoyed the class so much that I already signed up for the next online painting course.”
