Life Drawing Focus: Proportion and Foreshortening
Thurs 18 September
10 am-12.30

Tutor: chris blackburn
We will look at different approaches to capturing proportion, and how to tackle foreshortening. We will also learn from looking at other artworks - from Caravaggio to Spiderman comics- that have captured or played with foreshortening for drama or movement.
Life Drawing Focus: Heads and Shoulders
Thurs 25 September
10 am-12.30
£28
Tutor: chris blackburn
Head too small? Face a blank space? Angle of the shoulder throwing out the rest of the drawing? In this class we’ll pay attention to the anatomy of heads and shoulders, with a few tips on portraiture thrown in.
Life Drawing Focus: Hands
Thursday 27 November
10 am-12.30
£28
Tutor: chris blackburn
A class of two halves: first we will spend some time studying and drawing hands, then we will return to full figure and include hands in our drawing with more confidence..
Freeing Up: Sorry Not Sorry
A creative course exploring the possibilities of drawing
Thursday October 2nd
10-1pm
Course cost: £28
Do you sometimes just want to let go and free-up your drawing? This class provides a safe, non-judgey space for you to unapologetically draw the way you want to draw. We will explore what drawing is or could be and consider observation, response, technical skill and free expression, and we’ll probe the tensions between getting it 'right' versus letting loose.
Materials (but not rules) included.
