Arts for Older Adults: Drawing the 3D Form - 2 Part Class

In this two-part drawing class, we will be observing and sketching three-dimensional forms to help us better understand how to make our drawings look more “real.” The first session will focus on drawing geometric forms and in the second session we will “graduate” to some everyday objects.

Supplies included are a pencil, eraser and paper.

Classes take place on Friday, May 2 and Friday, May 16 from 1 to 3 p.m. Sign up here for both classes!

This class is part of the Arts for Older Adults program and is open only to adults aged 60 or older through funding from the Tennesee Arts Commission and St. Paul's Episcopal Church.
