Join Museum Educator, Michelle Pontiff, for a series of stress free, beginner level online drawing classes designed to improve on and build your drawing skills. Participants are encouraged to tune in each week to learn a new technique and need only a pencil, eraser and paper to join in. Optional additional materials for each class are suggested in each sessions’ description. Explore different mark-making techniques. Use your new found skills to create an artwork based on pattern and repetition. Optional materials: pen, ink or markers. A separate registration is required for each class. Before class begins, registrants will receive a link to join the workshop via Zoom. Registration is FREE, but if you are able, please consider a donation of $10 to help us continue to present creative arts programming inspired by Southern art and artists.
