In this 10 series workshop we will explore the magic of geometry through art.
Using a compass and a straight edge students will discover a new way of seeing amazing interrelationships of lines and shapes through a series of guided step-by-step drawing exercises. Each student will have the opportunity to craft unique drawings by expressing visual opinions as they complete and refine each piece.
