Drawing and Watercolour with William Band
Thursdays, February 12 to March 19, 2009
10 am to 2 pm
$60 for members, $75 for non-members
Join William Band early next year, and learn drawing and watercolour techniques. Learn how to read photos, and start with rough sketches to create a finished work.
Band has studied with respected Canadian artists including Alan Collier, Bill Stidworthy, and Franklin Arbuckle. After a successful career in commercial art, he returned to his first love, painting. William's art is based on his travels, from canoeing through northern Ontario lakes, to painting in Scotland.
Besides Visual Arts Brampton, William's workshop schedule includes stops across Ontario, as well as multiple times in Plain Field, Illinois.
Contact us to sign up for William's Drawing and Watercolour workshop.
