Sketch Hunters

During these instructor-led walking tours, participants will make loose sketches and paint scenes of downtown Colorado Springs in personal art journals.

The instructor for this class is Jana L. Bussanich.

“The sketch hunter moves through life as he finds it, not passing negligently the things he loves, but stopping to know them, and to note them down in the shorthand of his sketchbook.” ― Robert Henri

Each tour starts at Jana L. Bussanich Art Studio.

Arrive and to meet members of the group, bring your coffee, and enjoy instructor demonstrations.
