Learn to develop a natural, individual drawing style using forms from nature as your subject. Through close observation we will examine various types of organic forms and explore each form's unique qualities. Movement, use of positive and negative space, exaggeration, choice of composition and employment of light are some of the means of imparting individual character to natural forms. Pencil, pen and ink and charcoal are the materials that will lead us to our discoveries.

Please bring a sketchpad (9" x 12" or thereabouts),
HB and 2B pencils and an eraser to the first class.


Class will be taught by Kathie Milligan.

Kathie received her MFA in painting in spring 2007 from the New York Studio School in Manhattan. She earned an undergraduate degree from Skidmore College in Saratoga Springs, New York. She has lived and studied both in the United States and London and shown artwork internationally. She is a multi-media artist concentrating on drawing and painting and presently divides her time between teaching and landscape painting.
