This course will run over 6 sessions on Wednesday evenings 8 January – 12 February 2025, 6:00pm – 8:30pm.

Explore the fundamentals of drawing and painting on this six-week introductory course.

Start with the basics and understand how to use traditional drawing techniques to re-create still life objects, and landscapes onto paper and then move on to accurately depict the proportions of a face, progressing onto tone and colour to create a portrait painting.

Teaching Artist Lucy Dewsnap will provide in-depth tuition and you’ll develop skills working from still life, and reference images.

The skills gained from this course will give you the confidence to continue developing your own personal artistic practice.

Who is the workshop for?

The course is ideal for early-stage artists and those wishing to build confidence with drawing and painting with tutor advice and guidance.

Do I need to bring anything?

Basic materials such as pencils, charcoal, cartridge paper, brushes and acrylics will be provided, as well as drawing boards and easels. Students are encouraged to bring any of their own materials along to use throughout the course. Your tutor will provide more information at your first session about materials.
