Drawing and Painting Sea Creatures

All levels and ages are welcome to this course!

In this workshop, students will have the opportunity to learn how to draw their choice of sea creatures such as lobsters, fish, sharks, manta rays, and more. We will use photo references as well as watch ocean documentaries during the class for visual references. 

We will create two different small-medium size drawings of sea creatures and talk about how to create a full scene complete with backgrounds of the ocean floor, coral, and more. Students will be able to outline and paint from the drawings they create and learn multimedia (watercolor, gouache, paint marker) techniques for creating different colors, textures, and movement in their pieces.
