Discover the essentials of drawing in this comprehensive class, and learn how to draw people, understand perspective, and turn 2-dimensional images into a 3-dimensional form. You’ll learn foundational techniques such as shading, composition, and perspective—skills that will transform the way you see and capture the world around you.
This class is open to makers of all levels, from beginners eager to learn the basics, to experienced creators looking to refine their techniques. With personalized guidance and practical exercises, you’ll build confidence and develop a solid foundation for your artistic journey.
Being able to draw is the foundation of all making. Drawing will teach you how you can learn how to see and observe the world around you, and Martina will teach you how you can capture and create anything.
