Introduction to Creative Drawing &
Continuing Creative Drawing with Pat Otto

7 Tuesdays from 10:00 am-12 noon ~ March 2 - April 20, 2010 (off March 30) ~ $125 fee

Do you ever wish you had stronger technical skills to bring to your creative process? This is the class for you! Art therapist and drawing instructor Pat Otto provides a structure for the creative impulse to build upon and grow, teaching a greater vocabulary for self-expression by guiding participants through exercises on the basic fundamentals of art (such as line, value, form, shape, composition). Non-traditional, meditative drawing tasks are given to stimulate the imagination as well as demonstrate the basic concepts. For beginners and those with experience in the creative arts.

Location: Blue Lotus Art Studio, 912 Sherman Ave., Evanston, IL 60202
