Drawing Fundamentals: Seeing and Simplifying the World Around You

Led by instructor Behnaz Ahmadian, this 6-week hands-on observational drawing class invites students to break down everyday objects into foundational shapes and add details to bring sketches to life. Working with a range of graphite pencils, participants discover how to build depth and dimension through value, shading, and texture, ultimately gaining a stronger command of light, shadow, and composition.
