Unleash your inner artist with our "Ear Perfect: From Beginner to Master" workshop!

 

In this two-hour session, we'll delve into the intricacies of drawing the human ear. Beginning with a comprehensive lecture covering ear anatomy and essential techniques, follow along as we create two detailed ear studies together. After gaining a solid foundation, you'll have ample time to work on your own project with personalized guidance.

 

Whether you're a beginner or looking to refine your skills, this workshop will build foundational skills to help you create a successful human portrait. Bring your own project or utilize the provided reference materials. Let's capture the beauty of the human ear together!

Age

Workshops are open to anyone who wants to draw and learn freehand drawing art from age 10 through adults. If you are a beginner or new to graphite pencil art, start from the Introduction to Graphite Pencil workshop.

Art LeveL

All art styles, skill levels, and art goals are welcome. If you are new to graphite pencil, I highly recommend taking the Introduction to Graphite Pencil workshop before taking other workshops. Each workshop builds skillsets needed for the next workshop.

Flexibility

Pick your workshop from two available session times! All workshops are filled on a first-come, first-serve basis. All classes are 2 hours long, and it is $46/class.

Need more time to finish your work? Join the 2-hour open studio class in the following week for more individualized instructions.

Location

All workshops and open studio classes are held at Tanigawa Studio in downtown McKinney TX.
