In the Winter Quarter 2023, we will draw Winter Landscapes using student-choice combinations of graphite, ink, colored pencil, and watercolor. Our class is predominately intermediate artists but welcomes beginners who are interested in joining and sharing their learning with a supportive group of experienced artists.
We will meet on Tuesday afternoons 12-3pm from January 17th – March 21st, 2023 via Zoom.
We will discuss optional materials on the first day of class, but bring the graphite supplies with you for use on the first day of class.
Start collecting Winter Landscape imagery that you are interested in drawing in black and white and full color. The specifics of what might be included are people, animals, rural or urban scenes, waterscapes, etc; however, they need to have aspects of the winter season.
**Scholarships are available to 55+ students thanks to the generosity of the Roy Howard & Ruth Koral endowment funds. If you are interested and in need of a scholarship, please call the Continuing Education office at 206-592-3785 to register.
