This basic course is intended primarily for those who have never drawn or are a bit rusty (see below).The five sessions held in the gallery, will concentrate on all the basics of good drawing practice ie tracking,line, form, composition and perspective. Each subject taught as a visual tool is intended to complement and develop rather than change any individual style. By explaining the reasons behind the methods each subject becomes both understandable and usable.

One subject per evening of the five sessions.attendance at all five sessions qualifies you for the certificate, missed classes can be taken in the next session for free until February 2010, after this there will be a half-price charge per lesson missed.

This course is also suitable for those who have done some or even a lot of drawing in the past ,are a bit out of practice and wish to refresh their skills. Some of our post-graduate students and professionals in other artistic fields have found it to be very helpful and have had excellent results.
Although this course uses a life model the principles apply to all types of subject matter.

John will take all of the classes, and the models will change weekly when possible. Students will provide their own materials, but equipment will also be available for hire, sale and loan.
