The Downriver Council for the Arts Home Gallery, 20904 North Line Road, Taylor, is ushering in the new year with two drawing exhibits.
"DrawnIn/Drawn Out: Drawings of Jack Johnson, Robert Sestok and Steven Zatto" is featured in the Main Gallery, with "Figuratively Speaking: The Work of Eugene Clark," in the Skylight Gallery.
The exhibits will run through Feb. 16.
"Drawn In/Drawn Out" showcases three Detroit-area artists seeking to push the boundaries of the drawing media, exploring issues of style, materials and subject matter.
In "Figuratively Speaking," Clark uses a traditionally academic approach to drawing the human form.
As part of this drawing exhibit, the DCA will host "The Great SaturdayDraw In" from 9 a.m. - 2 p.m. Feb. 10. Mark Jackson will run a life drawing session that is open to artists of all skill levels, 18 years and older. Eugene Clark will conduct a workshop from 12:30 - 2 p.m. that teaches artists traditional techniques to draw the human head. All ages and skill levels are welcome. The cost for each class is $8, or $15 for both classes.
Gallery hours are 10 a.m. - 4 p.m. Wednesdays through Fridays and noon - 3 p.m. Saturdays. For more information, call 1-734-287-6103.
