Learn tips and tricks for drawing buildings and architecture in this online class.
Start your Saturday creatively with this online art class. Join artist Jeanette Barnes for a Saturday Sketch Club focused on drawing architecture expressively. Learn how to draw real and imagined buildings with accuracy and flare, and develop a better understanding of your built environment through drawing.
Our Saturday Sketch Clubs are a series of online monthly art classes led by artists. Whether you're a beginner or a practicing artist, these live-streamed classes are designed for everyone. Sessions take place online via a live webinar. Attendees will be sent a link to join the webinar closer to the time.
Share your work with the online Sketch Club community by posting your drawings to Twitter or Instagram using the hashtag #RASketchClub or join our Facebook group to connect with other participants.
