Overview
Ladies Drawing Night invites readers to join the party at the weekly drawing evenings of beloved illustrators Leah Goren, Rachael Cole, and Julia Rothman. Each chapter presents a night loosely themed around a single topic, material, or challenge— from collage to making art with kids, ink painting to drawing in public—featuring talented guests who join in and share their expertise. Hang out with Samantha Hahn, Mary Kate McDevitt, Joana Avillez, and many other talented ladies as they get creative with the group. Featuring beautiful photography; loads of exciting artwork; tips, tricks, thoughts, and insights about art-making; and instructions with supply lists for each night’s project—this is a peek into the sketchbooks of some of the best female illustrators working today, and an open invitation to join in, make art, and celebrate creativity with good company.
