When the Cats Away   Nancy Honaker  Colored Pencil

Our latest show is hanging in the gallery and may be viewed online.

These three sessions of Drawing Bootcamp will focus on using linear perspective to create the illusion of three-dimensional space. We will use both one-point and two-point perspective to construct an illusion of 3 dimensional space from imagination. We will then put this knowledge into practice while drawing from observation. We will use a viewfinder to assist in building the skills of sighting and measuring in order to create accurate representation of space.
