Event description
Class Description: Unlock the expressive power of ink in this hands-on drawing course! Whether you're a beginner or looking to expand your artistic toolbox, this class offers an exciting exploration of ink drawing techniques and approaches. You’ll learn and experiment with methods like ink wash, crosshatching, stippling, and layered imagery. Each session is designed to build your skill and confidence with ink, one stroke at a time. Unlike pencil drawing, where you can press for darker values, ink drawing challenges you to build depth and texture through linework—layering lines and dots to create tone and form. You’ll learn how to make your marks count, bringing boldness and clarity to your art. Come draw with us!
