Drawing Fundamentals: Seeing and Simplifying the World Around You

Led by instructor Behnaz Ahmadian, this 6-week hands-on observational drawing class teaches participants to break down everyday objects into simple shapes before adding details. Working with a range of graphite pencils, students discover how to create depth and dimension through value, shading, and texture. The workshop builds a stronger understanding of form, light, shadow, and composition while helping participants develop confidence in their drawing skills.
