Simple Ways to Sketch Objects and Scenes
with John Roman

In the tradition of the popular “Urban Sketchers” genre, this one-day workshop with noted illustrator and educator John Roman will introduce students to the ways in which artists can visually translate the everyday world in simplified, sketchbook form. Helpful approaches to drawing figures, settings, and architectural structures will be explored, and the session will conclude with a discussion of student work.
