MARCH Classes
Escape the national news, the stress of work and the pressures of daily life. Instead, spend quality time each week in the quiet, nurturing atmosphere of a local art studio. Relax as classic music plays softly in the background. Learn at your own pace with gentle and encouraging instruction. You'll find these class to be very therapeutic.
All classes are held in Doug Young Studios, 12A Lois Avenue.
Figure Drawing Workshop (Adults)
Trying to capture a likeness of someone is a life-long study. We'll begin our study by looking at basic human anatomy. Most of the time will be spent drawing from live models. Bring a large sketch pad (11 x 14 larger) and drawing pencils to the first class and you’ll be ready to begin. (Dates: Mondays, March 1-22; Time: 6:00-8:00 P.M.; Fee: $85) Four classes (two hours each) Please register by February 26.
Beginner's Drawing (Adults/Teens)
Draw for the fun of it. We'll study the basics to help you capture what you see so that you can express yourself artistically. We'll start with perspective, shading and simple composition. We'll explore still life and perhaps touch on figure drawing. You'll need a large newsprint sketch pad (11x14 or larger), drawing pencils, and charcoal pencils or charcoal sticks. (Dates: Thursdays, March 4-25; Time: 6:00-8:00 PM; Fee: $85) Four classes (two hours each) Please register by February 26.
To register, send an email with the name of the class in the subject line. In the text, include your name and contact information along with any questions you may have. Payment will be taken on the first day of class.
Private lessons are also available for high school students and adults.
Models Needed
No experience necessary
Models are often needed for Doug's studio classes or as models for some of his sculptures. You must be able to hold a pose for about 15 minutes. Students taking the drawing class are serious about perfecting their work. If you're interested, please contact Doug for more information.
