Annual Events coming up
It looks like the next events will be in August so stay tuned next month...
New/changed meetups
Starting in the summer session, the Tuesday figure drawing classes at Durham Arts Council will switch to a Thursday guided studio practice instead. I do not know if this will be a permanent change. The session is currently full regardless. Open studio is still on Sundays.
Other announcements
- I'm teaching at Durham Arts Council and currently have 2 spots open for Perspective Fundamentals for Urban & Landscape Art (single session, Friday 7/10) and several spots for Expressive Figures in Mixed Media (single session, Friday 8/7). Register with Durham Arts Council!
- Fellow instructors, if you have a class related to live art (figure drawing, plein air, urban sketching, and similar), feel free to reply and let me know about it - I don't mind announcing them here. A tip on Ko-fi helps with the operating costs of the website and newsletter.
