Taught by practicing artists, this weekly class will lead students through a wide range of observational drawing exercises to create a portfolio of high-quality work.
Students will explore essential drawing techniques including line, tone, shape, form, perspective, proportion, and colour. They will have opportunities to draw from clothed models, still life setups, artworks, film, and their surroundings.
Each week, tutors introduce new exercises and diverse influences to keep the course fresh, dynamic, and inspiring. Young artists are encouraged to develop their unique artistic voice and sharpen their observation skills.
