Service Description

[In Person] How to Monet: The Art of Drawing Your Environment by Paula Hernández on Wednesday evenings, 6:00-8:00 pm CST from 9/09/26-10/14/26, meeting in-person on UT campus Monet once said, “the richness I achieve comes from nature, the source of my inspiration.” In this class we will embrace this philosophy and learn to capture the world around us through multi-media art. We will build fundamental skills sketching with graphite and work our way up to painting. Along the way, we will leverage fundamental art principles such as value and shape and techniques such as cross-hatching and shading. Each class we will pair a new subject, people, nature, architecture, with a series of new techniques. Join us as we adventure around UT campus to find new inspiration and practice observational art. No prior art experience is necessary, if you’re excited to explore nature and learn about art, this is the class for you!


Upcoming Sessions


Cancellation Policy

Our classes operate on a first-come, first-serve basis, with limited seating for up to 13 participants to ensure a quality learning experience. By registering, you reserve a valuable seat that may prevent others from joining. We understand that plans can change. However, cancellations made within one week of the class start date are not eligible for refunds. If you are unable to attend, we are happy to offer a course voucher, allowing you to apply your registration toward a future class of your choice. Parent/Guardian Attendance Policy Our program is designed to empower adults with IDDs to participate in classes at UT Austin alongside their peers, including both other adult students and college students. We encourage our participants to build self-confidence, practice age-appropriate social skills, and experience the independence of a college environment, just as any neurotypical college student would. To support this mission, parents and guardians are not permitted to attend classes with their student. However, if there are special circumstances—such as a need for assistance with personal care or concerns about behavior—exceptions to this policy may be considered. These exceptions require review and approval by our Executive Director, Kaelin Rubenzer, on a case-by-case basis. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
