Expressive Drawing

Expressive Drawing

Expressive Drawing


Create drawings that communicate a feeling or raw emotion, regardless of whether they are representational or abstract! Explore a wide variety of mark-making techniques that are loose and lyrical, or chaotic and energetic. Channel your energy to draw how you feel instead of only what you see.


Maybe you are afraid to make mistakes or you feel your process has become predictable? Let’s shake it up in a series of guided experiments that break through the fear of playing it safe and the limitations of precision. Come and explore the full potential of your expressive mark-making!
