Overview

Led by practicing artists, students will explore core drawing techniques including line, tone, shape, form, perspective, proportion, and colour. Alongside artistic development, they’ll strengthen their critical thinking, problem-solving, and communication skills while learning to work creatively and collaboratively.
 
Sessions include drawing from clothed models, still life, artworks—and, occasionally, working outdoors to draw from life. 
 
All classes take place in our dedicated fourth-floor studio, a bright and inspiring space fully equipped for drawing.
