“A fabulous way to explore your inner creativity and have a play with ideas and materials.” Ruth S I love teaching this course – encouraging and guiding students away from the realities they are faced with to discover a creative self-expressive style of drawing. It is so rewarding working through the creative challenges so that […]
“Challenging but immensely rewarding.” Joe H We enjoyed a lovely weekend focusing on detail and structure. This course is always quieter and calmer than some of my other courses as more time is needed for focused concentration to achieve the high level of detail that is required to draw realistically. With a small group I […]
“I learnt some good techniques – more than expected. Very enjoyable! Karen P Every course I teach has its own studio dynamics and this Realistic drawing course always creates a quiet focused studio. Critical observation when aiming for high accuracy takes concentration and quiet and I love this mood as it descends over the studio. […]
“Wonderful experience. Loved every minute of it. I look forward to attending more courses in the future.” Hannah F A great course to teach that supports students in gaining the skills to observe objects more accurately and really understand the form and structure in order to render objects more accurately and realistically. Loads of techniques […]

“[My highlight was] experimenting with ink + mixed media, watercolour, etc” Chrissy D Another Covid course with just 2 students able to attend due to many needing to self-isolate. Feel determined to continue teaching my courses so no-one looses out on the courses they have booked. I’m getting used to this now and am enjoying […]

Each session is very different as we open doors to exciting things about line, tone, colour, shape, form, texture and pattern – the Art Elements. David described the course as “awesome, friendly and very inspiring – meeting great people and getting pro help.” Read further […]
