What you just need is a few tips and practice; you can also free your mind and make your version of the sorrounding world instead of a copy; a third option is to draw your own inner world letting your emotion lead your hand.

All is valid and depends of which stage of your artistic skills you are. Come to class, take a piece of paper, something to draw on it and we will find it out.

I guarantee a fun class where no only drawing, but a space and time to talk about art.

Note: in this class you mainly will use the line as a basic tool to learn proportion, sense of space and other concepts.
