Speaking casually about death is taboo in many cultures, but death is part of life, and when we talk about it, we help normalize it. Normalizing death helps us better prepare for it. You can’t prepare for something you don’t acknowledge. By having conversations about death, you can help others feel more comfortable about death, too, so it’s not viewed as something morbid, but something absolutely worth talking about. “At a Death Cafe people, often strangers, gather to eat cake, drink tea and discuss death. Our objective is ‘to increase awareness of death with a view to helping people make the most of their (finite) lives’. A Death Cafe is a group directed discussion of death with no agenda, objectives or themes. It is a discussion group rather than a grief support or counseling session.” — From the Death Cafe website.

If you are interested in pushing yourself to grow as an artist, then welcome! In this class, we will be furthering techniques learned in Beginning Drawing as well as learning new and more complicated techniques. We will explore new avenues of expression though the majority of work will still focus on direct observation. Experimental techniques and concepts will also be addressed. More emphasis will be placed on creating complex, sustained artworks by utilizing design principles (balance, unity, etc.) and self-analysis. Remember, it’s more about effort and participation, not skill level. I would love to see you continue to further your artistic skills by taking Drawing 2. Let’s set a good example to the Drawing 1 class so they can see what hard work can create! Ask for supply list when you sign up. Maximum 12. Instructor: Richard Tanner
