Life Class November 9,10 &11
( full / waiting list )
Next available life class February 8th -11th
This Life Class starts with a full day of drawing from short poses to longer ones. Experimentation with different materials will be encouraged ranging from dry methods to wet using materials such as charcoal, soluble graphite and ink . Sunday and Monday will consist of longer poses to accommodate those painting. The mornings of Sunday and Monday will have the same pose and the afternoons a different one. Therefore the duration of these longer poses could be from 5 to 7 hours.
Drawing is encouraged as much as painting so the long sessions suit both and allow time for some substantial and intense work. Tasks will be set but instruction is mostly on a one-to-one basis and tailored to individual needs and experiences. Some of those attending will have been before, therefore it’s a matter of developing everyones’ work to a further stage.
