This is a 10 week course (3 parts in 1), where we will be exploring and experimenting sketching and drawing with pencils, charcoal and ink pens, and painting with acrylics, watercolour or oils, the choice is yours!
Part 1 -
We will learn how to create a realistic-looking texture using a selection of pencils, charcoal sticks, watercolour pencils and fine line pens. We will practice shading by using strokes, feathering, crosshatching, fading shading, learning about form, light, shapes, composition, depth and perspective. We will achieve these by drawing simple 3-D shapes, a still-life, landscape and townscape/cityscape.
Please bring a selection of pencils, watercolour pencils, charcoal sticks and fine line pens, along with some good quality paper and a sketch book.
Part 2 -
During the second part of the course you will have an opportunity to explore and learn how to paint with acrylics or watercolour (oils optional). We will be painting a still-life or you might want to have an attempt to paint your pet or favourite animal. If you decide to do so, please bring a good quality photograph of your pet.
Part 3 -
During the third part of the course, we will be taking a structured approach to drawing and painting the human face. Faces are one of the most engaging subjects to draw and paint.
We will be exploring shapes and the character of the human face, the proportional differences and the individual unique expression of personality.
You will have the choice of doing a full-face portrait, a three-quarter view and a profile. You might like to attempt a self portrait or perhaps do a portrait of a friend or relative, if so please bring a good quality photo with you.
If you have already done some portraits you might want to attempt drawing and painting the human figure end explore movement as well.

This course is suitable for both beginners and students who have already attended our previous courses and workshops. If you are new to this there is no need to worry, you will be under the professional supervision of our art tutor Marina.
Together we will learn, experiment, be creative and have fun.
