Sketching

**INTENSIVE Drawing Course - learn to draw independently, step by step** This **intensive drawing course** is for anyone who wants to learn drawing from scratch and master it confidently in the long term. The goal of this course is to guide you step by step **to being able to draw independently** – without reference materials, without uncertainty, and with a solid understanding of form, proportion, and light. The focus is on building a strong foundation that is essential for any drawing style In this course, you'll learn the **absolute basics of drawing** : sketching, shading, and accurate measuring. These three areas form the foundation for both realistic and stylized drawings. You'll learn how to observe subjects correctly, place lines deliberately, and create depth and volume using simple techniques. Measuring proportions, in particular, will help you avoid typical beginner mistakes and significantly improve your drawings. This intensive course is intentionally structured as **an ongoing drawing course**. Drawing is a skill that develops through regular practice. A single session can be inspiring, but it's not enough to make real progress. Through consistent participation, you'll systematically build your knowledge and develop an increasingly refined sense of form, light, and perspective. Each lesson builds upon the previous one and reinforces the concepts learned. A key focus is on **practical application** . You'll actively draw in every lesson and receive individual feedback. I'll personally guide you, show you alternative approaches, and help you develop your own drawing style. The goal is not only to instruct you but also to equip you with the necessary tools to **continue drawing independently** and realize your own designs. ### Draw more, pay less Those who want to draw regularly will benefit from a **course subscription**. With a subscription (4, 6, or 12 lessons), each lesson becomes significantly cheaper. The subscription is ideal for anyone who is motivated, wants to stick with it, and consistently improve their drawing skills. Regular sessions provide structure, routine, and visible progress – exactly what many people need when drawin **For whom?** This intensive drawing course is suitable **for beginners *and motivated newcomers* .** No prior knowledge is required. What's most important is the desire to truly learn how to draw and the willingness to practice regularly. Talent isn't crucial – patience, interest, and consistency are the keys to success. If you want to learn **to draw confidently and independently** , solidify your basics and improve step by step, this intensive course is just right for you.

For our first session, I will bring one simple shopfront photo from Zug. We will all work from the same reference, drawing and painting the same shopfront, each in our own individual way. There is no right or wrong result. ### ✨ What this session is about * slowing down and really looking at a building * noticing small details we usually pass by * exploring how a place feels while we draw This is not about perfect drawings or finished-looking results. The focus is on the **process**, not the outcome. ### 🖌 How we will work Everyone will draw the entire shopfront, while being free to simplify, exaggerate, or interpret details in a personal way. Watercolor, lines, and unfinished sketches are all welcome. ### 🌿 Good to know * No experience needed * This is not a class * A calm, friendly and non-judgmental space ### 📍 Location Indoor location in Zug (details shared after registration) ### 💰 Contribution CHF 20 (covers room rental and facilitation) ### 💬 Language English

I have taken a few years off to finish my doctorate and now I am back to share my research with you. You are all warmly invited to attend this one-week only exhibition, accompanied by guided tours. Vernissage: Thursday, March 26, 7pm -10pm. Material Art Space, Klingenstrasse 23, Zurich Guided Tours: Sunday, March 29, 3pm. Additional tours may be available by appointment. *The Concentration Camp Exhibition* features artwork that I discovered during the course of my doctoral research, made in a concentration camp in Transnistria during the Holocaust. Some of the works were displayed immediately after the war in an eponymous exhibition long since forgotten by time and the politics of memory. This is the first attempt to recreate that 1945 exhibition and also present other drawings and artefacts made in the camp by the Jewish detainees. Also shown will be the first documentary about the camp, **[Vapniarka: Camp of Death](https://us.list-manage.com/T12X4Q1RiAq?e=9eac3a4542&c2id=5ed7cfcec7e7f06f68cc628cb450f1dd)**

We'll meet at The Capital One Café, 167 Easton Town Center, Space A-103. This is in the main mall where the Microsoft store used to be, on your left if you're standing at the bottom of the AMC Theater escalator. Join us on Saturday for an hour of uninterrupted wordmaking! • What we'll do Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at 10AM on Saturday mornings. Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done. SCHEDULE: 10:00 - SESSION 1: quick intros. 10:10 - timer starts: write for 1 hour. 11:10 - chat / take off / keep writing. OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING happens at 11A-11:30ish. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing. BEING LATE IS OKAY: just show up and get settled, then check-in with me after the session. (I’ll be the person with the Shut Up & Write! sign.) If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. Happy writing and I look forward to seeing you! • What to bring Whatever you need to be able to write! Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block noise or the occasional conversation by other patrons. Electrical outlets are limited, so charge your devices before whenever possible. See you at The Café on Saturday!

[The Board Walks](http://www.theboardwalks.com/) are for curious people who love deep conversations. If that sounds like you, **bring a thoughtful topic** and join us for a 5-mile walk (10,000+ steps!). **HOW IT WORKS** **Step 1: Bring a topic** Before you arrive, think of **one** topic you want to explore. A question. A thought that's been on your mind. An obsession you want to geek out on. This is your ticket to the event. **Step 2: Circle up & share** We gather in a circle. Your friendly walk host gives a speech to set the tone. Everyone shares: your name, what you're grateful for, and your topic. That's it. 60 seconds. **Step 3: Walk, talk & float** We walk 5 miles. You naturally drift into conversation with 2-3 people at a time, pulled by topics that spark your curiosity. When you're ready to move on, just say: "I'm going to float!" **Step 4: Feel more alive** Two hours flies by. You're back where you started — but you feel different. More alive. More energized. More connected to yourself and others. That's why regulars join 20+ times. *For more details, read our [Orientation Guide.](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation)* **HOW TO BRING A GREAT TOPIC** A great topic = something you're genuinely curious about. Recent topics include: * "What are you passionate about right now?" * "What makes a good friend?" * "What's a belief you used to hold that you've completely changed?" * "How do you want to be remembered?" * "What would you do if money wasn't a factor?" Think of your topic like the dish you're bringing to our conversational potluck. If everyone brings an A+ dish (i.e. energizing, uplifting, expansive), we'll all walk away feeling lighter and brighter. **WHAT TO EXPECT** This isn't a fitness event with casual chitchat. It's a walking think tank where we explore life's big questions together, beyond small talk. *If you're looking for light banter or a standard networking event, this probably isn't the right fit.* But if you crave depth, genuine connection, and conversations that make you feel alive? You'll love it here. **FAQ** * Wear casual athletic attire and sneakers. It's a long walk! * We have multiple first-timers at each event. We work hard to create a welcoming, inclusive, clique-free space. * We welcome people of **all** ages, backgrounds, and industries who align with the [intention](https://www.theboardwalks.com/ground-rules) of this space. * Rain or shine, we've been out here nearly every week since July 2022. If the event is cancelled, we'll let you know. * Dogs, babies in strollers, parents, and friends are welcome — please text/email them the event link so they can RSVP and prepare a topic! **LOGISTICS** * If you'll arrive over 10 minutes late, we suggest skipping the event. It's hard to find us once we start walking, and your host can't answer messages during the event. * This walk is designed for everyone to *move together at the same steady pace* (about 20 min/mile). This format works best when the whole group moves in unison. If you have mobility limitations, we kindly encourage you to find an event better suited to your needs. * Read our [Orientation Guide](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation) for full details. * If you enjoy the event, send **[this](http://www.theboardwalks.com/)** to a friend or sign up for our **[newsletter](https://theboardwalks.beehiiv.com/)**. We're in multiple cities with more on the way. 🤠👋 **IF YOU WANT TO GO DEEPER...** [The Board](https://stan.store/ellebeecher/p/the-board) is the next step: a high-trust collective for renaissance people devoted to creating, connecting, and building lives that light us up. * This is a global HQ for people who crave big talk, deep connection, and dream collaborations with people across industries.
