ART RETREAT WITH TAM

Fun With A Sketchbook: A Practice for Everyone

DATE: Saturday, Sept 13, 9-4

Goal: fun with a sketchbook

If your goal is to: 

• Learn how or why to keep a sketching practice
• Understand how to begin and have less fear about the blank page
• Generate drawings that can be the foundation for bigger, more finished pieces

Then...

...Join local artist Tam Veilleux for a day capturing Brunswick, Maine in a simple and expressive sketchbook style that will keep you engaged with creativity for years to come - without pressure.

WHAT TO EXPECT: 

Participants will go from grounding themselves to blind contours, fun with blind contours to 3-5 line drawings with color. Discover line and simple shapes in a few fun hours in a beautiful downtown setting. Your sketchbook practice will be rejuvenated. Meet at The Mix on Park Row workshop space at 9 AM. 

Lessons will be taught outside (weather pending). Wear comfy shoes for a short exploration of town. 

Time will be allotted for lunch on your own.

MATERIAL NEEDED:

Sketchbook, pencil, watercolor pencils, or colored pencils,  pencil sharpener, paintbrush, water bottle, cup, paper towel all available at The Mix on Park Row.
