Consisting of five fun and interactive 3hr Sunday afternoon tutored sessions, covering the fundamentals of drawing in different mediums. Whether you're a beginner or just looking to brush up on your skills, this is a great course to help you boost your creativity with other art enthusiasts.
We will cover these subjects:
- the head and face,
- the body (basic anatomy),
- hands and feet,

- a little on formal perspective, which can be applied to anything (interiors, exteriors, and objects), and abstracted forms.
We will cover different common materials:
Monochrome:
- graphite pencils,
- chalk and charcoal,
- ink.
Colour:
- colour pencils,
- pastels,
- working on white and coloured backgrounds.
Miscellaneous:
- sharpening,
- erasing.
Various techniques:
- things like your body posture and tool grip when drawing,
- things to practice as homework to improve skills,
- measurement,
- working at different scales,
- shading,
- speed, pressure, and varying mark making,
- modes of thinking and seeing.
And drawing fundamentals such as:
- line,
- shape,
- form,
- tonal value,
- colour theory.
The aim is to cover a robust set of methods, techniques and thought processes to give you a solid practical grounding in drawing.

Cancellations / Refunds:
Since the course is limited to just 12 spaces, cancellations close to the start date may result in places not being able to be filled, or the course not being able to run. Therefore, we would highly appreciate if you could inform us as soon as possible if you are unable to attend. Full refunds available up to two weeks before the start date, i.e., Sunday 10th March 2024. After March 10th, we cannot offer refunds regardless of the reason for cancellation, such as illness, personal or professional commitments, or a change of mind, as it will be close enough to the start date that finding someone to fill the position might be difficult or impossible, which could risk the course not being able to run for the other attendees. However, if you do wish to cancel after March 10th, and you know someone who can take your place, we can accommodate their substitution.
