INSTRUCTOR - Patrick Seufert
CREATIVE DRAWING classes offer a variety of lessons and various mediums, that are new to explore. We emphasize and encourage each students’ individual creative expression and their unique solutions to each project.
Mr. Seufert demonstrates all projects for about 15 minutes, or so. The students then gather their materials and start on the assignment. Most projects start with a strong pencil drawing. Students then proceed to work with the new material (s) introduced. Mr. Seufert makes it a point to help each student with their particular need or question, offering additional demonstration if required. Students should find the projects creative and challenging, yet fun!
Materials used include watercolor, tempera paint, oil pastel, pen & ink, colored pencil, markers, and clay. All materials are non toxic & safe. All students must have a 11” x 14” Strathmore sketch book which is available for purchase at the studio. All other supplies are provided by the studio.
