This class will present an intuitive approach to drawing the nude human figure. We will work from the model, incorporating gesture, observation and imagination to create drawings that enhance and develop your own creative style. Beginners as well as those with experience are welcome. In addition to doing exercises in class, we will look at great drawings of the past to discern the elements that make up their beauty. I will be available to offer guidance and direction as needed, and even homework if you desire.

Three brand-new haunted houses (The Silver Scream, Forbidden Fortress, Slayers) anchor a full-blown festival of fear on select nights Oct 3 – Nov 1, 2025. After you claw your way out of the mazes, challenge the Carn-Evil Funhouse, brave the pitch-black Complex: Blackout, loose arrows at Zombie Archery, or cram into one of three mini escape games (Bus 666, Trap House, The Hot Seat). Midway lights stay blazing with Oaks Park thrill rides, a haunted vendor market, coffin-ride “Buried Alive,” food, bars, and roaming monsters—all covered by one grounds pass. 1,000-plus five-star reviews can’t all be wrong.

• Hours & place: 7805 SE Oaks Park Way, Portland, OR 97202—free parking right on the riverfront midway. Gates and rides open one hour before haunt time.
• Tickets: Online General Admission from $23–$40 (prices rise closer to Halloween). Add VIP, All-Access, or ride bracelets at checkout to slash waits and pack in more screams.
• Who should come: Intense scares—best for ages 12+. Event runs rain-or-shine under ample cover. Costumes welcome (no full masks/props).

Get your crew, pick a night, and lock in your spot at ScaregroundsPDX.com before Portland’s biggest haunted event sells out.
