Are you inspired by the beauty of Sherman Gardens? Come and learn to draw it!

In this new class local art instructor, Brenda Benveniste, will give you the basic tools and techniques to draw some of the exquisite flowers and foliage you will find in the garden. 

Inspired by the stunning patterns and intricate natural designs of botanical subjects, participants will learn a variety of illustration and sketching techniques including detail observation, concepts of light value, and shading to create form.

No experience necessary. The goal is to foster artistic confidence and reveal individual creative style.

This class is for artists interested in both nature and detail, live drawing, and a serene atmosphere. 

All professional materials are included. Please bring sun protection as you will be working in the garden.
