A day of life drawing with live model, focussed on experimenting with abstract techniques, markmaking and thinking about drawing differently
Experimental Life Drawing Day Workshop
Alongside our weekly untutored class in Stokes Croft, this Autumn, artist and teacher Beth Kirby is also running a series of tutored evening classes and weekend workshops to experiement with drawing, and refine your skills.
This class is about expanding your practice around drawing the figure, and drawing in general. We will be moving through a series of approaches and techniques to connect with drawing the figure in new an exciting ways. Some will be challenging, some will be abstract but all we be designed to help you look at drawing in a different way, exploring by yourself and under guidance throughout the day.
Every level of artist is welcome, from beginners onwards. It's especially great for those who already have some level of skill but who wish to experiment or loosen up, as I intend to turn drawing on its head a little bit, get messy, and nurture your artistic approach. If you're looking for more of an intro on how to draw a figure, consider my evening workshop instead.
The Essentials
-The sessions run on Sundays, from 11am - 4pm. There will be an an hour break for lunch between 1-2pm.
-The class is at Hamilton House, Stokes Croft, Bristol.
-ALL abilities welcome, even if you've never picked up a pencil before!
