Upcoming online sessions
We run regular, tutored online drawing sessions. They’re a great way to carve out a time to focus on your art each week. We run portrait drawing sessions every Sundays at 4 PM (UK Time) and figure drawing on Wednesdays at 8 PM (UK Time). A tutor joins us, does a demonstration and gives hints and tips. At the end of the session you can share your work with the group for feedback and we give you a link so you can download the photographs and continue working on your drawings.
Portrait sessions are free on the last Sunday of the month. Otherwise, sessions cost $6.50 each, or you can subscribe for only $12 a month. For a FREE taster session of your choosing, sign up below
“This is the best drawing instruction I’ve seen anywhere” – Miriam Danar
Wednesday 28 May, 2025 at 8 PM (UK time)
Lizet Dingemans draws from two 30-minute figure poses with model Holly, using the Japanese concept of Notan to guide her composition. This approach focuses on the interplay of light and dark shapes to create visual harmony and impact. Working in willow charcoal on white paper, she simplifies the figure into clear value masses for a striking design.
This session will start in 11 hours, 6 minutes' time.
Sunday 1 June, 2025 at 4 PM (UK time)
Luca Indraccolo draws a portrait of model Beth this week, using subtle shifts in value to build up a strong sense of form and volume. Working with a black Col-Erase pencil and white Polychromos on mid-grey paper, he shows you how to carefully model the features while exploring how light shapes the structure of the face.
This session will start in 4 days' time.
