Drawing the Head & Face

Adults, Beginner to Intermediate

Saturday, October 17, 2026

10 AM - 2:30 PM​

Instructor: Ryan Greis

Faces are endlessly expressive, and learning to draw them is one of the most rewarding skills an artist can develop. In this hands-on portraiture workshop, teens discover how to capture a true likeness by studying the four major facial features (eyes, nose, mouth, and ears) not as flat shapes, but as three-dimensional forms shaped by light and shadow. Through guided exercises and multi-angle drawings, students develop a deeper understanding of facial anatomy, proportion, and structure, learning to see the way artists see. Working in black and white with charcoal and conté, they'll build confidence in rendering value, form, and personality on paper. All materials are provided, so just bring your curiosity and leave with the skills to bring faces to life.
