DRAWING FOR THE PENCIL CHALLENGED


Contact cathy@cathydee.com

"I believe that in order to paint well, you must learn to draw well. Once you can do this, painting in any media becomes a joy. Too often at art schools in New Zealand, students are not taught the technique of drawing, they are thrown into a painting class and told to produce something. This is akin to trying to make a beginner pianist play a Grade 7 Sonata. This workshop will give you the skills to render from life accurately and easily. Anyone can learn to draw well."
Cathy Dee
