FEBRUARY 15 - STILL LIFE EXPLORATIONS
Discover new ways of seeing through still life studies led by Kate Milliken. In this class, participants will experiment with a variety of materials—pencil, graphite, watercolor, collage, and even tactile media like pipe cleaners, beads, and tissue paper. Through guided exercises such as blind contour drawing and “drawing with your senses,” students will explore perception, form, and creative intuition. This class welcomes artists and beginners alike, encouraging curiosity, freedom, and personal expression.
