Get comfortable with life drawing and improve your creative observation in this friendly and relaxed course.

Life drawing is the traditional discipline of working from the (usually) naked body.

What to expect: This course will give a balance of observational skills and creative experiments, with the time to discover your own directions. Teaching as a group and encouraging individualism enjoy this immensely rewarding experience. There will be a selection of different models to work from through the course, focusing on different aspects of observation each week. Everyone will be made to feel welcome and comfortable.

Benefits: The study of life drawing can improve artistic skills, enhance observation, emotional expression, and personal growth.

Who is your tutor: Richard Francis Bellin studied Illustration BA(hons) at Southampton University in 2009. He found his calling in fine art painting, creating landscapes and seascapes on a commission basis. Richard has recently rediscovered a love for oils, finding inspiration in the great masters. Having previously used handmade paints which were chalky, quick drying and unmalleable, Richard found comfort working in a free flowing medium with unlimited possibilities. Richard is a multidisciplinary artist, teaching a variety of classes from life drawing to oil painting and illustration, to all ages.

Duration: 6pm - 8pm

What to bring/ wear: A small selection of basic materials and paper will be available to use, with easels and boards, though students will be encouraged to bring their own to enable diversity. Guide to essential materials to bring:
