For many of us, drawing seems to be a mysterious process, reserved for the few who are "talented," but the work of Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain has debunked this myth.

An intensive combination of lectures and studio exercises that packs a semester-long art course into five days, this workshop is designed to develop the perceptual skills necessary for drawing with confidence and has proven valuable both for people who feel they have little talent for drawing, and for those wishing to expand their abilities.

It explores the relationship of drawing skills to the specialized functions of the right- and left-brain hemispheres, based on the pioneering work of Betty Edwards. In a carefully sequenced process, we learn the basic strategies of "seeing" that enable us to draw with a high degree of skill and produce finished drawings of high quality. All exercises are preceded by demonstrations and followed by assessments of individual progress.

This workshop is also offered June 22-27. Lynda Greenberg is also teaching Exploring Color & Value, June 29-July 4.

Lynda Greenberg, MFA, a practicing artist in Long Beach, California, teaches art courses at Antelope Valley and Harbor colleges and institutions around the country. While teaching at California State Uni-versity, Long Beach, she was trained by and worked with Betty Edwards, author of Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain, for more than a decade. artedcenter.com
