Teacher:  Mrs. Lorrie Dykstra

Time:  Friday 9:00-9:55 or 1:45-2:40

Class Cost:  $210

(Many students take this class for more than one year). Discover with charcoal pencil how beautifully God structured His creation. Children will learn basic drawing techniques such as contour and gesture drawing and foreshortening. We will learn how light and shadow affect the tonal value of drawing. Bring your materials and be ready to draw! Drawing supplies can be found at Michael’s, Hobby Lobby, T-Square, or try Blick Studio at 1-800-828-4548 (for a free catalog-great prices!) or www.dickblick.com. NOTE: We are planning to have a field trip for grades 6-12 to Art Prize sometime in October.

***One of the Drawing I classes will alternate each year with Botanical Notebook being offered in 2013.
