What to Expect on Experimental Drawing
It is so easy to get in a rut. Sometimes you might not notice the rut. This class is a liberating approach to drawing. It is not essential to go wild every day, but never taking your drawing to new and feral places is limiting.
The class will be based on a still life, music and as many materials as you can bring with you.
This is an upbeat series of morning classes; drawing can be fun. You will learn that the borders of what you thought was possible, sensible and the ‘right thing to do’, are not where you thought they were. You can do more, so much more, and enjoy the journey.
Materials
Gather together all the drawing materials you already have – the greater the choice the better. We will have a selection of materials available to purchase in the studio if you are unable to find all that you need.

This is an experimental class – all materials might not be listed here. As the classes progress you will find new objects and materials that you want to bring with you to use. This will be encouraged.
The key to Refresh and Renew with Experimental Drawing is to be open to new ideas, new materials and new ways of doings things.
