Drawing: Wednesday Afternoon

Wednesdays, 1.30pm-3.30pm

In this introduction to drawing, you can learn the basics of pencil, watercolour, charcoal, and drawing with pen and ink. Take time to experiment, to become confident and ambitious with materials, and produce drawings that you are proud of. This class is for anyone who would like to try drawing for the first time, and for those who are looking to build confidence in their drawing technique or further their practice.

What to bring

Please bring any drawing materials you already have or are interested in trying such as pens, pencils, charcoal and a sketchbook. You can also bring any objects or images that inspire you or that you might like to translate into print.
