# Event Details - **Event Name**: Saturday Drawing Club for Beginners+ - **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 15 Aug, 2026 at 02:00 pm - **Event Description**: Learn to draw, or dust off your drawing practice in this informative, fun class series with seasoned teaching artist Laura NobleAbout this EventDrawing For BeginnersJoin us at LMN Wedge Studio & Gallery for a fun and immersive ongoing class where you can learn or referesh your experience with the basics of observational drawing! This class is perfect for those who have always wanted to pick up a pencil and start creating but didn't know where to begin. This is also great for advanced beginners who may have taken a class in the past, or need to shake off the dust.This class is designed to rotate in new students on an ongoing basis, with the suggested minimum commitment of 8 weeks, for the best learning outcomes. We accept drop-ins, and encourage you to try an introductory lesson, and decide if you'd like to do another 7 weeks beyond that. Also, you don't need to do all 8 weeks back-to-back, as long as you use your 8-week credit within 4 months. How it works: More experienced students may be working on their own individual projects, while newer or less-experienced students receive more hands-on instruction. We all have a round-table sharing session at the end of each class, to take a look at the work, and sum up any lessons we've been working on. It's a fun format!Our talented instructor- Laura Noble- will guide you through different observational techniques and mark-making approaches, helping you build confidence and improve your skills. Whether you're a complete novice or just looking to brush up on your drawing abilities, this class is perfect for you. We will learn the basics of drawing light on form, composition, and using graphite or charcoal and stillife and interior scenes.Supplies: Bring your own drawing pad and basic sketching supplies (for the pad, 9"x12" or larger- 14"x17" is ideal. Graphite pencils or woodless pencils in 4B-9B are recommended, as well as erasers and a sharpener). For recurring students taking the whole course, we will introduce other drawing mediums and techiniques, such as colored pencil, ballpoint pen, and conte pencil. Good erasers and a pencil sharpener are also useful.Going beyond the first class, I will introduce and deepen our use of various drawing mediums (including pencil, charcoal or conté, and colored pencil) to create compelling images of observed subjects, including stillife, self portrait, clothed figures, architecture, and room interiors. This class will introduce students, and prepare them for drawing from live models (our Intro to Figure Drawing Course will build on this. In addition, or Intermediate Drawing Course will move students further into the subtleties and techniques of drawing, including linear perspective, anatomy, and developing longer drawings from reference and sketches).Come and unleash your creativity in a supportive and encouraging environment.
