Collaborative Drawing

Hamlett Dobbins

REGISTRATION CLOSED. Check our Spring Session for new classes.

In Collaborative Drawing, we transform the solitary act of art-making into a dynamic conversation.

Collaboration is a great way to expand the existing studio habits of a practiced artist as well as provide valuable learning experience for the beginner.

Having a range of experience levels adds energy and excitement to the collaborative class. Working alongside others provides a team-like attitude to the simplest of projects and can make the most complicated projects more manageable. Collaboration will change how you approach the studio.

Come prepared to react, respond, and see where the conversation takes you. All materials are provided!

Four week class, meets once a week for three hours
