Member Sketch Classes offer beginners and those with prior experience an introduction to concepts and practices of drawing. This is a unique opportunity to draw in the museum and to learn by observing the work of acknowledged masters. Students’ perceptual skills and technique will be heightened as they discover new means and materials to convey their individual expressions. Critique sessions allow time for the exchange of ideas and insight into emerging personal styles.
