When was the last time you drew? How often do you create art a week? This class is all about rediscovering the joy of drawing and making a regular practice of creating art! Feel free to use any materials you're comfortable with, whether it be pen/ink, watercolor, acrylic, or even clay. We welcome all forms of artistic expression! We will have weekly prompts, challenges, and digital exhibits/mini critiques. The goal is not just to get back into the rhythm of creating art, but to find pure joy in the process. We will start by exploring materials, color, and emotions through lines. Our goal is to create at least 50 small art pieces in a minimum of 10 weeks!

Learning Outcomes:

• Get back into making art
• create 50- 100 pieces of work!
