Join us for an evening of figure drawing in our contemporary art gallery featuring Universal Turf: Peter Manion. Work with artist and instructor Brian Flowers on a series of gesture drawings, sighting techniques, and understanding basic proportions. After a short break, shift gears and slow down with a longer pose, followed by a group drawing exercise and a fun showand-tell. No experience? No problem! This program is designed for figure drawing novices as well as active studio artists. Basic drawing supplies and boards will be available on a firstcome, first-served basis—feel free to bring your own!
