Morgan Brooke
If you liked to draw as a kid but stopped drawing in junior high because your drawings didn't look real, it's time you started to draw again. In this class, we're going to debunk the talent myth. Drawing is a learned skill, just like reading. You'll learn the tricks and tips artists use to accurately draw what they see, whether it's people, objects, animals or nature. One way to accomplish this is to trick your mind into moving to the creative, holistic side of the brain to help you draw the subject the way it is, not the way you think it is. If you stopped drawing because you felt “talentless,” you'll love this class.

Create a beautiful, colorful, exciting mosaic on clear glass to hang in a sunny window. Your instructor, Suzanne Grant, encourages students to let their imaginations run wild and use a variety of transparent materials (stained and textured glass, beads, millefiore, and anything else that shines and sparkles in the sun!) Suzanne helps students learn to cut different shapes, and presents information on five basic design techniques and how to choose a background to complement your main subject.
