The medium of pencil drawing and sketching together is a celebration of being in the moment. Each session includes carefully designed gradual steps to promote the craft of deep observation and to ensure each student reaches success. This class can also be easily adapted to Zoom. To promote engagement and improvement in an ever positive environment, classes conclude with a zoom spotlight to allow each student to share and discuss with each other along with Sandra, their work.
