A familiar rhythm.
New discoveries.
Buds combines warm-ups, focused skill teaching, artist study and sustained studio work. Students make purposeful choices, check in with the instructor and reflect on what changed in their work. A weekly take-home sketchbook challenge extends drawing practice between classes.
