Saw-whet Owl Drawing In-Person
Learn how to create a beautiful graphite and soft pastel drawing of a saw-whet owl in this beginner-friendly drawing class. Using toned tan paper as a warm foundation, students will explore techniques for layering graphite pencil, blending soft feather textures, and creating contrast with highlights and shadows. Working step-by-step from a reference image, the class will focus on drawing the bird’s elegant shape, bright eyes, and the delicate feathers. Students will also learn how toned paper can enhance contrast and help create depth in a drawing. This class is perfect for beginners as well as artists looking to strengthen their observational drawing and shading skills in a relaxed and supportive environment
