Drawing from Scratch in 5 Weeks

The course is studio-based so projects will largely be concentrated on the still-life. The emphasis will be on observational drawing and you will be taught how to interpret your surroundings.

This structured course will introduce you to line and tone using a range of materials including pencil, chalk, charcoal and ink.

Each week will focus on a particular drawing approach such as positive and negative space, near and far, light to convey form and mark making. You will be introduced to each drawing task by an experienced tutor who will refer to artists work and give demonstrations where appropriate. You will receive plenty of one to one tuition to enable you to achieve. The course will give you a chance to exchange ideas with others and participate in supportive group critiques.
