Lunchtime drop-in drawing sessions with a life model, guided by tutor Heyes Johnson. All levels welcome.
Keen to practice your sketching and observation skills in a relaxed environment? Be inspired by a life model in an open drawing encounter, every Friday lunchtime.
Set in the Gallery spaces, you are invited to bring your favourite drawing materials (dry media only please) or use the materials provided, grab a stool and find a space to be inspired by what you see. There will be a drawing tutor Heyes Johnson on hand to offer guidance.
These drawing sessions are suitable for everyone – from complete beginners to accomplished artists. All welcome. Drop in early though, as places are limited.
