The Arts Council of Princeton partners with the Princeton University Art Museum to provide free virtual art-making classes. Weekly classes are taught by ACP artist-instructor Barbara DiLorenzo over Zoom. With an emphasis on drawing with colored pencils on paper, each week’s lesson in this series will be inspired by an artwork depicting nature in the Museum’s collections.
This live art-making class is inspired by this Maya ceramic sculpture of a dignitary that dates to about 600–800 BCE. In this session, we will focus on drawing the details on a figure.
