  • The Sketch Pad Art Studio
  • Colleen Carter will be teaching a two week (four classes) drawing class for adults based on the book, Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain, by Betty Edwards. This is a method that teaches 4 fundamental skills of drawing: the perception of edges, negative and positive spaces, relationships of lines, and light and shadow. Learning and practicing these skills will greatly improve your ability to draw any subject matter. Demonstrations, individual attention and plenty of studio time will ensure that beginners, as well as experienced artists, will develop their skills.
