In a small group, it aims at developing observation skills, drawing and painting techniques, drawing speed.

Travel sketching: capturing the essence, making composition choices

This travel sketchbook art class is perfect if you begin, or if you would like to improve on composition, perspective, figure drawing techniques. The plein air art class in Paris is complementary to the studio sessions (see Watercolor Sketching Class at the Studio on Tuesday 2:30PM-4:30PM).
