Sketching with Helena

About this event

Have you always wanted to try your hand at sketching? Come and spend a pleasant afternoon with Helena and learn to sketch. "Hi there! My name is Helena. This will be my first time teaching an official art class, and I am so excited! I started drawing before I could spell my own name, and that love of drawing has followed me throughout my life. I got my undergrad in biology with the intent to become an orthodontist because I didn't want to be a "starving artist" as much as I loved art. But one day, my mother was in a doctor's office and wondered, "Who draws all these posters?" One Google rabbit hole later, I found the perfect job for me: medical illustrator. It took a lot of work, but I finally got accepted to the RIT Medical Illustration MFA program. I've been working on getting my degree for a few years, and I'm excited to share the things I've learned with all y'all!" *Registration required
