After making pencil still-life drawings, we may have time to add color and details. No experience is necessary. All skill levels are welcome. ALSO: Bring 3-4 objects to arrange in a still life. These will be what you observe and draw. Choose some variety in shape, size and color. Carefully consider the complexity of the objects.
