Drawing is a means of recording the visual world around us. This art form teaches understanding, how to accurately document ideas and giving us the ability to describe our innermost thoughts. With experienced artist Priscilla Humay as your guide focus on composition, proportion and perspective as you learn how to use graphite to your advantage. Bring dimension and texture to your still lifes of botanical specimens or work in the gardens alongside nature to breathe life into your work.
