ONLINE PORTRAIT DRAWING


On Mondays we run an untutored 2-hour portrait drawing session with a different model posing each week over Zoom. It's a great chance to get stuck into longer poses and the session is recorded to watch as 'replays' later. On Thursday we run a communal drawing session called Portrait Club over Zoom where everybody takes it in turns to pose and draw. If you're joint from outside of the UK, you can check the time of the session against the time in your timezone here: www.timeanddate.com. If you sign up via Patreon you will be able to find the links for the weekly sessions on the Patreon feed, without needing to register to attend. ​
