Guys/Gals,

[b]BEGINNERS' Drawing Workshop - Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain[/b]
[left] [center][b]The Format:[/b]

2. In about [b]TWO WEEKS[/b], you will be expected to [b]have the book[/b] so that the Beginner's Drawing Workshop can begin.

Margie (formerly Stipick_S) has generously offered her time to critique work; however, with a full-time job and a demanding schedule, she will not be able to answer everyone’s requests for assistance. She has agreed, however, to stop by the threads when she has time to offer comments and critique. I will also be offering the occasional comments / critique ~ however, the main focus of the Open Figure Drawing Workshop threads should be on Group Critique and interaction.
6.[b] ANY MEDIUM [/b]may be used: Traditional or Digital Drawing. 7. Please limit the [b]SIZE [/b]of your [b][color=PaleGreen]POSTS [/b][/color]to[b] [color=PaleGreen]600 pixels WIDTH[/b][/color][b] x Appropriate pixel LENGTH.[/b] [b]No huge posts, please![/b] 8. Have fun, enjoy, and learn! :) Thank you to Stipick_S for this great idea!!! :)
