Still Life Anywhere: Drawing in Your Sketchbook
Willow Bader
$516
Explore beyond your charcoal still-life drawing skills and prepare to take them out into the world. Using soft graphite and other travel-friendly materials, you'll apply what you know about value, form, and observation to both short and longer still life studies in a sketchbook. Each session introduces a new set-up and a new sketchbook strategy: thumbnails, notes beside drawings, and adding color selectively for emphasis and fun. You'll leave with a portable kit, a growing sketchbook, and a drawing habit that goes wherever you do. No easel or big setup needed.
