- Work with pencil, charcoal, pastel, and sanguine
- Learn gesture, anatomy, proportion, and movement
- Weekly drawing exercises from photo and observation
- A full live model session in the final class
- Support, feedback, and gentle critique throughout
- 🎒 What’s Included
- All drawing materials (paper, boards, tools, etc.)
- Studio use & safe artwork storage between sessions
- Live model posing in Week 4
- Individual guidance and instructor feedback
Just bring your curiosity and a positive attitude — we’ll take care of the rest!
💡 What You’ll Learn
- Figure construction: body proportions, anatomy, and balance
- Gesture drawing and capturing movement
- Light, shadow, and form to create depth
- Expressive linework and dynamic composition
- How to bring energy and character into your figures

Heavy Blossom
Paint & Sip – PIE Guided Painting Event

Heavy Blossom. Petals in 3D. Spring you can almost touch.
Ever wanted to paint something so lush you feel like you could pluck it off the canvas? This is your moment.
In this textured acrylic session, you’ll create a dreamy cherry blossom branch in soft pink hues, set against a hazy pastel background. With modelling paste, you’ll build thick, velvety petals and a sturdy branch that practically pop out of the painting.
We’ll guide you in mixing tender tones, sculpting with your palette knife, and layering texture so the blossoms feel weighty, rich, and irresistibly touchable.
Perfect for beginners, texture lovers, and anyone who wants to bring a little springtime magic into their space — no matter the season.
