I started a workplace sketching group that meets once a week in a meeting room. It's cool because the people who have showed interest and have shown up are from a completely random cross-section of careers but either want to learn to draw or haven't drawn since they were much younger. But one thing I quickly learned is that I need a plan. I'm not a teacher and don't consider myself any better than anyone else but since I arranged it I owe it to them to offer them some structure so we aren't just sitting there staring at each other. They're even nervous to draw people at all so we need some other stuff to do as we work up to drawing each other. Anyone have experience with anything like this? Some ideas that we've tossed around: - Assorted still life subjects (blocks and balls, fruit and vegetables, flowers) - Short sketches (30 sec, 1 min, 5 min), working up to longer sketches - Finishing each other's drawings

Goddamn that's precisely the advise I was looking for. Thanks! I'll post about progress if people are interested. I'd love to see drawing groups pop up in corporate environments more often. I put this on our intranet and people in other countries are like "oh man I wish I could be there!" There's a real benefit I think.
