Drawing Fundamentals with Maria DeAngelo

Looking for a welcoming introduction to drawing? This two-session class is designed to help you build confidence, understand core techniques, and start seeing the world with an artist’s eye.

Across both sessions, you’ll learn how to break down objects into basic forms, use perspective to create depth, and draw with values to build light and shadow. These fundamentals are the building blocks of every drawing—once you understand them, your artwork becomes clearer, stronger, and more intentional.

This class is perfect for beginners or anyone returning to drawing after a long break. You’ll practice simple, approachable exercises that help you understand shape, space, and contrast, while developing skills that support future art projects.

By the end of the class, you’ll have a solid foundation in observational drawing and a toolkit of techniques you can continue to grow.

Supplies are not included in the class fee.
