Thank you to the terrific folks who attended Dori’s first online beginning drawing class! We had an excellent turn-out, and—from what I could tell from the little screens—some noticeable learning going on. Here are some reminders and homework suggestions.

You can use the photos on this page to help finish the drawings we did in class. Your homework was to draw white objects lit from the side, and specifically a roll of toilet paper. You never have to do homework if you don’t want to.

If you’d like to post your work for feedback or just to share with the community, the Red Dot Student Connection is your place to be. You can also ask questions in the comments below.

The next class will be held Friday April 10 at 3:00 pm. You can sign up here. You’ll get your Zoom meeting number in the confirmation email after you’ve paid. We’ll be expanding on the first class by doing a sill-life with a little color.

We are grateful for this chance to connect and make art in this crazy time, and we hope to see more new friends in the weeks ahead. Stay tuned for more developments in the way this class is offered. Our current protocols are based on moving quickly, so we realize we have kinks to work out. Your suggestions about other class times are welcome.

Best advice for students: Keep on drawing!
