DESCRIPTION: Inspired by the work of artist, Angélica Dass, we’ll learn techniques to draw various skin tones. We’ll explore different skin tones by studying Dass Cubes, learn techniques to draw different skin tones, draw our own self portraits, and share! This is a wonderful workshop to learn about the beauty of human skin color and importance of representation and diversity in our work.
