Drawing Foundations April 14 - June 2, 2026, 6:30 PM - 9 PM
All supplies provided, $330/8 sessions

Return to the foundations of drawing with fresh eyes in this 8-week course designed for both newcomers and those who’ve taken the class before.
We’ll continue working with classic materials — graphite, charcoal, chalk, and pastels — but with added emphasis on control, intention, and experimentation. Through guided exercises and open-ended prompts, returning students will have space to build on what they already know, while beginners are supported step by step.
What you can expect:
✨ Continued practice in shading, line quality, and expressive mark-making
✨ Expanded approaches to still life, landscape, figure, and abstract work
✨ Opportunities to work more independently while receiving focused guidance
✨ Gentle challenges that help returning students advance beyond beginner level
✨ A supportive environment for exploration, reflection, and creative growth
No pressure, no perfection — just steady progress. All materials are provided (or feel free to bring your own favorites). Street parking is free after 5 PM, closest parkade is the Bastion Parkade behind the RBC bank and is a 4 minute walk to the studio and is free after 5 PM and on weekends.
