This 1 hour drawing class is perfect for beginners and mature artists alike … introducing the core building blocks of drawing — line, shape, value, proportion, and form — through simple, structured exercises that work for every age and experience level.

Taught in our signature step-by-step style, this workshop is ideal for families, curious beginners, and anyone looking to reconnect with their creative side.

At Soma Studio Arts we believe that great artwork comes from great ideas expressed through mastery of skill.   No previous experience required — a willingness to try is all it takes, we'll even provide the materials.
