Stacye Leanza – Tuesdays, Jun 7 – Jun 28, 6:30pm-9:00pm (In-Person)

**THIS CLASS WILL BE OFFSITE**

Sketchbook Journaling is a dynamic way to capture your life’s events in a sketch book. We’ll meet out in the (post-covid?) world, in all its newness, and draw the surroundings, noticing what has changed.  Students will learn techniques to quickly capture the expression of the human form, using light and shadow.  Also, how to capture the light, and use it expressively. Great for travelers! & for loosening up, too! 

We’ll meet at venues without vaccine requirements, but masks will be required.
