Archer Branch

Meeting Room

Experience a rapid-timed drawing session and see how you can add daily drawing into your life. No drawing experience needed.

Rapid-timed drawings are sketches drawn quickly to capture the essence of the image. It helps build eye-hand coordination and refines observational skills when drawing. Beginning with a 2-minute sketch, we will slowly increase the amount of time allotted to create small pieces of book art.

This month's theme is Mardi Gras, Also known as Fat Tuesday. In places like New Orleans, Louisiana, the term often describes the entire Carnival season, which kicks off on Epiphany (January 6) and builds up to a climax of parades, masked balls, and street parties. We will be drawing colors, krewes and parades, food, and costumes. Laissez le bon temps rouler! (Let the good times rule.)

All supplies provided. No experience necessary.
