TRAIN YOUR RIGHT BRAIN
Learning and developing drawing skills
If the idea of drawing makes you think “I can’t even draw a stick figure,” this workshop series is for you! If you enjoy drawing but find yourself repeating the same style and techniques and are looking to try something different, this is for you too!
Throughout this five week series you’ll learn techniques that ease the common, overwhelming idea that you can’t draw unless you’re “born with it” or that there’s only one way to see and draw. These techniques emphasize on teaching and training your eyes and mind to see things a bit differently, more creatively, from what we experience on an often automatic daily basis with the left brain. Here, participants practice and learn a variety of tools that can be used to develop and enhance anyone’s drawing skills.
We invite adults of all skill levels, from novices to experienced artists. Art supplies are provided. Register today for any or all of our upcoming classes: May 29, June 5, 12, 19, 26 (Thursdays, 6:30-8:30PM)
Teaching Artist, Luisa Baptista (@luisaartsny), shares various tools that she’s learned along the way as well as inspirations from Betty Edwards’ book, “Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain.” Luisa is a Yonkers’ based artist/muralist. Her stylistic, organic line movement is distinct and reflective of her. She has created public and private works throughout lower Westchester and New York City.
