Class Description
Join instructor and professional painter, Amy Wynne, as she teaches this introduction to drawing the landscape. She’ll share how to use a fountain pen, brushes, water, a pencil and a viewfinder to go out and capture the space and environment around you.

It's been about 20 years since art school and I am now getting back to it. I felt like this was a great review of basic techniques and tips. The information was very helpful to get me back to drawing again.
