portrait sketch & sip party
MARCH 31ST, 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM EST
WE WILL SHOW YOU, ANYONE CAN BE AN ARTIST!
Anyone can be drawn! (self, friends, family). Guests will just need to come with:
- A high quality profile photo of their subject, preferably without teeth showing (as they can be hard to draw)
- Paper, pencil, and eraser. Anything that can add color (pens, colored pencils, marker) would be an added bonus!
We'll teach general techniques for drawing caricatures, while demonstrating a live example. At the end, we will have everyone share their caricatures with the group, along with the reference photo! Everyone will have gained drawing skills, a personalized portrait, and some great laughs :)
