Watch and learn as Jana demonstrates methods for seeing and drawing shapes, shadows, proportions, composition, and design in ways that make drawing enjoyable, relaxing, efficient, and realistic. These techniques align with how we naturally perceive the world, creating drawings that feel alive and engaging. They also help overcome common drawing anxieties, making it second nature to see differently and draw any subject with confidence. Come experience the fun and magic of these time-tested methods you'll be eager to try on your own! Designed for artists of all levels, this workshop will be broadcast live via Zoom. Every registered participant will receive a full recording of the demonstration, accessible for 30 days. Paint along at your own pace to master each technique.
