Themed Life Drawing hosts a space to study numerous poses with an experienced nude life model. Tutors Klaire and Anna will encourage you through a series of drawing and painting techniques during timed poses. Each week hosts a different fun theme with props, costume and makeup to inspire your art work. You can draw, paint and create with whatever materials you have at home. Previous themes include: Fortune Teller, Under the Sea, Futurism, Goddesses and many more!
Practical Art History:
Practical Art History features an illustrated lecture about the history of a prevalent artist, combined with fun practical art activities inspired by their art for you to take part in. We cover a different classic or contemporary artist each week. By the end of each class, you will have new found knowledge on the work and life of a great artist. You will also be equipped with new techniques to improve your own art and to embed your understanding of the artist.
