Art Courses Wales : Weekend Life Class

Saturday , the first day ,  is more of exploratory drawing session using  various approaches and materials in response to a number of different  poses  ranging  from 2 minutes to an hour.  Sunday and Monday is set up for those who wishing  to focus  on painting where poses can last from 2 to 7 hours. Drawing is encouraged as much as painting so the long sessions will suit painters as much as those who prefer a prolonged drawing session.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.

Levels: 

The course is suitable for intermediates and advanced. Some experience with life drawing and painting is therefore useful.

Materials:

It is advised you bring your own materials to draw and paint. We have  stock which is really a standby.There is no shortage of large  drawing sheets, primed paper canvases.  There is also a small stock of brushes for sale, but it is best to bring  your own.

When booking please confer with us about materials and what to bring if you are not sure. There is no need to spend a small fortune on materials. Less is more.
