Moment Sketching Workshop with Jim Lammers
July 5, 2025 12:00 PM – 2:00 PM
Overview
Learn to draw and get more out of traveling! ‘Moment sketching’ is capturing the moment, expressing how you feel about what you are observing and sketching. It’s the perfect approach for traveling because it will help you become more observant and expand your experience.
“There is a tremendous difference between seeing a thing without a pencil in your hand and seeing it while drawing it.” – Leonardo Da Vinci
This class will introduce drawing and design concepts (line, shape, value, perspective, shade, shadow, composition) in a supportive atmosphere. The idea is to do a rough sketch that is not overly detailed, to simply observe and then sketch. Don’t pressure yourself to be accurate (accuracy is for cameras) but rather get into a rhythm and sketch from the right side of your brain. We’ll use the interesting architecture around and within Landmark Center.
This workshop will meet at Landmark Center in Courtroom 408. The workshop will move about the building to sketch different areas.
All supplies will be provided! If you’d like to bring a lunch or something to drink, you are welcome to do so.
