Service Description

Join our lovely tutor Siri France as she teaches you about capturing the human form but with a sense of movement and freedom. This workshop will give students the opportunity to draw the clothed figure in a variety of active poses. The challenge here is balancing structure with a sense of liberation and movement. Working from the model, students will explore ways of sketching to describe weight, balance, momentum and gesture. This is a great chance to get into the process of drawing, without fixating on the outcome. We often do our best work when we are relaxed and throwing caution to the wind! Inspiration will come from looking at works by masters of this art, including Rodin, Rembrandt, Picasso, and Fischl. Materials will be pencil, charcoal, watercolour and ink.

If a tutor leaves and starts work elsewhere, and a student prefers to take classes with them personally at the tutor's new workplace, that is at the discretion of the student and no refund is entitled to them or will be given. If a student is unable to attend a class due to medical/personal/professional reasons, then EDS must be informed immediately so that the tutor can be notified.

Non-attendance of classes/workshops does not automatically mean a refund, however EDS will assess the circumstance
