  • Beginners Drawing: How to Draw a Portrait

    Anna was great! She did such a wonderful job showing us exactly how to draw a portrait by using the Loomis grid method. She explained everything so easily. She took time to answer any questions and to allow us to show our work at the end. She was so positive when critiquing our work. I look forward to future classes with Anna Levy.
