Life Drawing & Still Life Studio

There are currently no openings available for this course.    

Introduction:


 

This two-day course offers an engaging exploration of drawing from life, combining still life studies with life drawing from a live model. Participants will build skills in proportion, gesture, observation, and mark-making, working with both traditional and expressive drawing techniques. Drawing inspiration from historical and contemporary artists, students are encouraged to experiment and develop their own visual style.

Open to all levels, the course is perfect for anyone looking to gain confidence in drawing from observation, whether for personal practice or academic development. Guidance will also be provided on choosing and using materials, including papers, graphite, and charcoal, to help bring both objects and the human form to life.
