Learn to Draw Animals
Grades 6-8
Learn To Draw Animals is a great class for art and animal lovers alike! Over four weekly sessions, learners will have fun drawing furry, finned, and feathered friends, learning skills along with a healthy dose of creativity. In this fun-filled collaborative environment, young artists will be inspired by photos of different kinds of animals, exploring things like: how to capture the feeling of an animal without worrying about being perfectly accurate; how to break down animal anatomy into basic shapes; and how to use different drawing techniques to add textures and shading to their drawings! They're encouraged to get as creative as they want with their drawing. Whether they want to make their drawings look more real or more fanciful, this is a great place for them to explore animal art.
