Line & Form: Drawing the Trolls, Aug. (Ages 7-11) (Sold Out)
August 21, 2023 @ 9:30 am - 3:30 pm
Monday & Tuesday, August 21 & 22, 9:30 a.m.-3:30 p.m.
The Gardens’ five resident trolls are fabulous sketching subjects! In this two-day workshop, young artists will develop an understanding of shape and form as they create their own sketches of these giants. Students will draw both on-site and in the studio and become familiar with a variety of drawing media, including various pencils and an introduction to watercolor. After capturing the trolls, participants will apply their new skills to other subjects at the Gardens such as butterflies, flowers, and frogs. All materials provided.
