SUMMARY:Sketching from Life at the Yarmouth Farmers Market (Aug. 24th)
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, August 24th from 3pm-6pm at the Yarmouth Farmers Market. \nJoin artist Catherine Bickford at the Yarmouth Farmers Market for a one hour drawing workshop that will help you think about drawing in a totally new way. Don’t worry\, you won’t be asked to learn linear perspective! Instead you will be asked to draw from two different points of perspective\, one up close\, and the other further away. You will make both drawings on the same piece of paper. Through using this simple technique you will learn to create complex “synthetic” drawings that are more experiential than traditional drawings. All proceeds from this workshop will benefit the Yarmouth Famers Market. \nAll ages welcome to join. \nCOST: $10/pp (Proceeds to support the Yarmouth Farmers Market.) \n \n  \n
