Class Overview: Artists have been drawing trees for centuries for many reasons. The associations are endless: tree of life, the apple tree in the Garden of Eden, family trees and their role as the lungs of the world. When we are drawing a tree we feel grounded picturing their roots growing deep into the earth and at the same time we feel the freedom to grow up into the sky as they reach for the sun. In this class we will be making drawings of trees from different points of view. The first day we will draw inside experimenting with new drawing tools and also making collaborative large drawings to create a forest of trees in our classroom. The second day, weather permitting, we will go outside and make a series of drawings in our sketchbooks, portraits of a specific or favorite tree. What to Bring: A sketchbook and preferred pens and pencils. Ah Haa will provide a variety of additional drawing utensils.
