This six-week life drawing course offers an experimental and spontaneous opportunity for you to explore the human form from multiple angles and close observations.

Guided by practicing artist Rachael Burke, employing a wide variety of drawing techniques, this open, supported workshop focuses on creative freedom and free expression, encouraging participants to connect with the energy of the subject in a non-analytical way.  
 
The course covers gestural and contour drawing, tone, mark-making, foreshortening, and negative space.

Working with different models from week to week, participants will use a variety of mediums such as charcoal, chalk, vivid pen, oil pastels and acrylic ink, often working at speed, enabling disengagement with intellect and the desire to anticipate an outcome.

This approach results in dynamic, energetic, unbounded drawings, and a generative body of work through a process of guided instruction and feedback.  

On completion you will work with more confidence, intuition, and less fear. Suitable for the novice or advanced practitioner.
