NO CLASS 5 SEPT

This class is aimed at beginner drawers interested in learning some necessary basics to drawing. Gain confidence and discover your strengths - this is suitable for those with no previous drawing experience, or those wishing to get back to their creative sides after a long break. Each lesson students will be guided through drawing exercises starting from the very basics and building up their knowledge and skills each week. We will look at mark making, proportions, perspective, light and shadows.
