Course Description:

This workshop series invites participants to engage with a variety of materials through guided, hands-on exercises. Each session is designed to encourage intuitive making, helping participants relax into the creative process without pressure or expectation. Through mindful exploration of texture, form, and composition, participants develop a deeper connection to their artistic voice. The focus is on process over outcome, creating a supportive space for experimentation, presence, and personal expression.

Drawing: Practice fast figure sketching and contour drawing from live model and still life. Using pencil, pen, and brush, participants build confidence in observation, gesture, and expressive line.

Painting

Collage
