Digital Studio - Evening | Plant Time: Slow Drawing

A live online drawing session exploring nature’s wonders: flowers, fossils, and more - discover how slow looking can inspire your work.

Experience a drawing class like no other.

These evening drawing sessions, broadcast live from the Royal Drawing School studios, are an opportunity for students to experience the dynamic and dramatic possibilities of the life room from home. Join students online from across the globe to draw from the model, theatrical sets, dancers, and more, with something new each week. Using a range of drawing practices, our expert tutors will guide you through a series of exercises over the course of each session.

This session led by Lindsay Sekulowicz will offer an opportunity to engage closely with nature. Looking through the lenses of artists, scientists, architects and other thinkers, you might be drawing from the ephemeral world of flowers, paying attention to the colour of mosses and pressed plants, or reflecting on the deep layers of time in fossils and minerals. You will learn how slow looking can influence your work and discover how objects in nature can be sources of inspiration. All levels welcome.
