Description | Have you ever wanted to sketch what you observe? Simply put pen to paper and capture an image that grabbed your attention? Or perhaps simply love sketching and wish to get better. These days we find ourselves at a perfect junction to learn new things, indulge our interests. If any of this applies to you this course is for you. It focuses on the art of sketching - whether it be from observation or photo reference – to learn and/or improve basic drawing skills. No art or drawing experience is required, other than desire to learn. Miha Sarani is a visual artist, an art historian, and an art educator. Born and raised in Ljubljana, Slovenia, he moved permanently to the United States in 2007. He earned a BFA (painting + drawing, ’15), and an MA (art history, ’19) from the University of Washington.
