On February 16, at Third Thursday in downtown Centralia, I’m offering an evening of Art Therapy. Two hours of FREE drawing exercises and sketching prompts.
You’ll need a couple of pencils, an eraser, and a sketchbook. That’s all!
Every level of artist is welcome. If you’re rusty, all the better.
We’ll do:
1. Warm-up scribbles
2. A review of simple shapes
3. Drawing prompts
Relax for two hours and get some drawing in with friends. In my opinion, there’s no better therapy.
No RSVP is needed.
Just wander in and join us.
