Expanded Drawing Sessions (Wednesday Evening Series)

This is not a traditional life drawing class. There will be no expectation of realism, producing polished drawings or getting things ‘right’.

Each workshop will explore a range of techniques and starting points, freeing us up to respond to the figure in new ways.

Through a debrief session at the close of each workshop, we will discuss and reflect on process and outcomes.

Workshop fees include all drawing instruction, art materials and light snacks.

Small group capped at 12 participants.

For beginners and experienced artists.

One ticket covers all sessions.

Single workshop tickets are available on request - please email [email protected].

Session dates (consecutive Wednesdays):

• Wed 4 March - 6.00 – 8:30pm

• Wed 11 March - 6.00 – 8:30pm

• Wed 18 March - 6.00 – 8:30pm

Artists Briony Barr (BFA / MFA) and Jacqueline Smith (BA Fine Art / Grad.Dip.Ed) have been drawing nerds since they were teenagers, beginning with developing collaborative drawing techniques at what became known as ‘drawing camp’ in the late 90s. Between 2008 and 2018 as part of Scale Free Network: art-science collaborative, Jacqui and Briony co-developed workshops and taught drawing to students of all ages, inspired by observation of the ‘invisible’ micro-scale. In recent years, both have explored experimental and live drawing in collaboration with musicians and performers, with a particular interest in the relationship between drawing and improvisation.

Please note: Due to limited places and preparation costs, tickets are non-refundable.
