Question from Anonymous
Hi! I’m very interested in this class. I am a self-learned artist and I’ve been working primarily with watercolor for the last 3 years. I have not taken the prerequisite, Intro to drawing. Can I still attend this class? I do have much experience with drawing in my own practice as well as in art classes and studio time.
Answer from anonymous
Hello, The prerequisite indication provides a suggested experience range, and students are able to self-elect. As you have previous experience in drawing, you can absolutely enroll in the course!
