Different drawing materials, techniques, and methods will be explored. Open to all levels of experience.

Students should bring the following materials: 

18" x 24" newsprint drawing pad, vine charcoal and compressed charcoal sticks, and assorted erasers. 

Craig Jackson Caldwell lives in Brewster, Massachusetts with his wife Bridget Cahill. He is originally from Signal Mountain, Tennessee, and graduated from Harvard with a degree in Visual and Environmental Studies, specifically painting. Craig has been an artist since his early years and has painted, sold, and taught art professionally for over 25 years. His work emanates from the beauty of the natural world and his work is in the Luminist and Tonalist tradition of painting, concentrating on the moods and colors of the natural world rather than the pictorial representation of a particular scene through illustration or pictorial realism. As a teacher, Craig excels at teaching the true language of drawing - to anyone, beginner, retiree, or first-time student of any age. Visit Craig’s website at www.craigjcaldwell.com.
