Sketching Flowers with ShawnaLee

For high school students and young adults. 

Georgia O'Keefe once said: "If you take a flower in your hand and really look at it, it's your world for a moment". 

Portraitist, ShawnaLee W. Kwashnak, will share sketching techniques and methods that will guide each student towards a deeper connection to the world of flowers! Each class will include lessons in mark making and a brief instructor demonstration followed by sketching practice. Emphasis is on personal growth, camaraderie, and the joy of sketching! We will practice from life and learn how to interpret from photographs. Students are invited to bring live flowers and/or printed photos of favorite flowers.


Students are welcome to bring their own pencils, erasers & sketchpads. A recommended materials list may be provided for guidance. Students may also opt to use the instructor’s materials for $20 payable to the instructor on the first class.
