Drawing Class Coming to Arts Center

The class continues the streak of unique offerings.

The Vernon Community Arts Center continues to offer a variety of classes.

Would you like to draw?  Then the latest class is for you. No experience is necessary to learn about values, grid and contour drawing, portraiture, perspective, observation techniques and negative space. 

Students will complete one grid drawing, one self-portrait and one perspective drawing.  Students should bring pencils, erasers, a sharpener and a sketch pad (minimum 16-by-20-inches) to the first class. Additional supplies will be discussed at that time.
