Let’s say your personal interest is ‘sea shells’…

Beginner sessions might cover the fundamentals of making marks, using the equipment correctly and techniques to replicate the 3D form and texture of shells.

If you already have some drawing skills we could start with complex forms, lighting for tone and rendering for realism. Learn how to make those shells pop!

Regardless of your abilities, sessions would start with quick exercises then transition to more complex work.

You would be encouraged to work towards a final larger drawing of your chosen shell.
