Portrait Drawing to Painting : 5-Week Course (All Levels)

Join us for a creative 5-week journey into portrait drawing and painting at Morningside Library. This friendly evening class guides you step by step from essential drawing skills to expressive, confident portrait painting.

Each week introduces a new focus — from proportions and light, to tone, colour, and brushwork — helping you build skills steadily and enjoyably. By the end of the course, you’ll be able to create a personal, characterful portrait using both drawing and paint.

• Supportive, hands-on tuition in drawing and painting
• A relaxed and welcoming environment for all skill levels
• A structured progression from pencil to watercolour/acrylic paint
• Guidance on proportion, tone, colour mixing, and expression
• Time to experiment and develop your own creative style

Whether you're completely new to portraiture or looking to refresh your practice, this course will give you the tools and confidence to bring your portraits to life.
