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
Sunday 20 April, 2025 at 4 PM (UK time)
Luca Indraccolo draws a portrait of model Bindu this week, using black, white, sanguine, and brown Polychromos pencils by Faber-Castell on dark green-grey paper. Throughout the session, he demonstrates how to develop a portrait through clear stages, refining structure and depth as the drawing progresses. He shares insights into balancing accuracy with expression, helping us build confidence in tackling this pose.
This session will start in 2 days' time.
Wednesday 23 April, 2025 at 8 PM (UK time)
Lizet Dingemans draws model Nikoletta in three quick twenty-minute poses this week, each exploring how to suggest the figure when it’s partially hidden by draped fabric. Working with white and dark pastel pencil on toned paper, she shows how to simplify what you see and look for essential shapes, helping you gain clarity and confidence when working with clothed figures.
This session will start in 5 days' time.
