It’s time to embrace YOUR style and not compare it to things you’ve seen before. No matter your skill level, you’ll see that everyone can draw and everyone is welcome!

Still Life, DAV style: Leave the phone behind and connect with your intuition. In each 2-hour session, you'll embark on a journey of still life drawing, starting with a short grounding practice and partner games followed by warm-up exercises after which you will be directed by our host with prompts and guidance to help you navigate where to start which can sometimes be overwhelming. This experimental, semi-structured session is designed to cultivate a relaxed atmosphere that ignites creativity and helps suppress your inner critic, because at DAV we believe that everyone’s style must be embraced!
