Develop drawing skills while engaging with works from the expanded AGO collection displayed in Frank Gehry-designed spaces. In this busy world, drawing can be a meditative act and a powerful way to focus concentration. Fill a sketch book with drawings inspired by AGO works including Henry Moore sculptures, Group of Seven paintings, the work of the Dutch masters, and the architecture of the spectacular Galleria Italia. Chat about art, artists and their times, while you create your own works. This course is designed for all levels of ability. Limited registration.
