Cat Bennett is definitely a woman of many talents!!!

paintings, drawings, collage, prints, illustrations, books.  

And this list doesn't even include sculpture!! and I am a huge fan of her wonderful sculpted heads!!!

“Making Art a Practice”

with Cat Bennett

Six-Week Class; 6 Video Lessons

Class Dates: October 6 – November 10

class description:

In Cat Bennett’s 6-week course, “Sketchbooks: Making Art a Practice,” we’ll use the sketchbook to explore how to make our art practice a vital one. We’ll draw and paint in experimental ways, find inspirational images to include in our sketchbooks, look at where we’ve been and where we might go, and consider how to grow our ideas for our art. We’ll also grow our drawing skills and discover our own best strengths so we can build on them.

Each lesson includes a video with demonstrations of various drawing and painting techniques, regular assignments, and a Facebook group to share sketchbook explorations. Cat will also offer daily inspiration (Monday to Friday) with general comments on the work and some further exercises for the super motivated!
