Activities

Sketching Shells

Online Workshop

Instructor: Erica Beade

Wednesday, December 4, 9:30–11:30 am

Shells are endlessly fascinating and with the great variety in their forms, patterns, and colors they are great subjects to draw. Join me for this two-hour online workshop where we’ll explore techniques for capturing them with pencil and paper. We will focus particularly on the three-dimensional “architecture” of the shell and use shading to capture volume and depth. The class will be limited to 12 participants, allowing ample time for individual feedback. All skill levels are welcome.
