Weekend Life Class
December 6th – 8th ( Sat – Mon 3 days )
This Weekend Life Class is the last of the year. Next year 2025 we have allocated 4.
We start with a full day of drawing from quick 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 . Saturday and Sunday will consist of two poses to accommodate both painting and drawing. The mornings of Sunday and Monday will have he same pose . The afternoons of Sunday and Monday will have a different pose. Therefore the duration of each pose will be about 5 hours.
The life class encourages drawing as much as painting. The longer sessions suit both and allows time for some substantial and intense work in either painting or drawing . 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.
