If you’ve always longed to draw and paint, this gentle introduction to basic art skills is for you. Learn techniques for creating effective compositions in traditional drawing and painting media including pencil, charcoal and acrylic on canvas. With guidance from the instructor, participants can expect to create several completed paintings through study of historical and contemporary examples as well as engagement with current exhibitions at the AGB. Suitable for beginners and those with experience.
