About this Event
Join Urban Sketchers Greenville for our February 7th event with local artist Matt Andrews!
After obtaining a B.F.A. from Winthrop University in 2012, Matt Andrews began working for a variety of clients doing illustration. The area where he is most prolific and well-known is artwork for new pinball machines. Though much of his illustration is produced and sent to clients digitally, he has spent the past few years focusing on back-to-basics traditional art, specifically outdoor sketching and painting. His recent sketches are done with a few brushes filled with alcohol and ink to block in color and texture, then lines are added with a fountain pen.

Matt will be hosting a Gouache - Beginner Friendly class on Tuesday February 10th evening class from 6pm-9pm at the Get Good Art Gallery and you can sign up with the link below:
