Course introduction

This course is for people who would like to continue to develop their skills and experience in life drawing. 

You will receive an induction to our well-resourced Art Department, supportive tutoring, new knowledge and skills in drawing, and opportunities to develop your creativity.

This course will give you the opportunity to build on the principles of drawing the human form and will lead to the development of a portfolio of work.

Throughout the course you will learn a variety of techniques and processes in life drawing; focusing on proportion and composition, applying both technical and expressive approaches and developing your skills in drawing the naked human form from life.

You will work with a range of dry drawing media, such as pencil, pen, charcoal, chalks and pastels developing techniques of line, tone and limited colour palettes. 

Please note: Due to the high demand of these part time courses, if you start a course but can no longer carry on, you will not be eligible for a full course refund. If you enrol on a course and the start date passes, you will not be eligible for a course material fee refund. If you get remitted fees and attend your course for free, if you do not attend the first two sessions without letting the tutor know or without valid reason, you will be withdrawn from the course. Many thanks for your understanding.
