Summary
Enjoy sketching a still life, a landscape and people in settings both indoors and out. At the first class learn how to make a simple sketchbook and get suggestions for packing art supplies for traveling. Some classes meet at cafes where students may stay for lunch. Mrs. Miller’s philosophy of art echoes Renoir’s, who said, “For me a picture should be something likable, joyous, and pretty. There are enough ugly things in life for us not to add to them.” Perhaps this experience will invite you to add something “likable, joyous and pretty ... in life.”
