Suitable for beginners, this class is appropriate for anyone with sewing skills enough to sew on a button. Learn how to think like an artist using simple skills that focus on light and color values rather than exact stitching techniques.

During this class, students will go over the basics of how to plan a portrait, including color selection, and then will begin stitching. By the end of the class, students will know to continue on their own.
