5-week course

Starts Tuesday 3 November 2026, 6.30pm-9pm

During this five session course on Zoom we will explore ways to describe three dimensional space through drawing. 

Setting off with a simple explanation of one and two point perspective, we’ll be drawing the immediate architectural space around us before moving on to an analysis of cityscapes in photographs. We’ll also look at ways to bend space, create intimate space and to flatten and raise perspective, bringing  the distance up to the foreground. Throughout the course we will refer to relevant artists as sources of inspiration and information. By the end of these 5 sessions you will have the skills and understanding to draw three dimensional space in ways that you feel most akin to. 

We will post materials out in advance to those who have booked onto this course. Regrettably, if you live outside of the UK mainland, we are unable to post materials to you, so when booking please use this code to receive 10% off. NOPOSTAGE2026

No Zoom account is required, however you will need a fully charged device from which to access Zoom, and access to stable internet/wifi signal. Participants are responsible for ensuring their audio and microphones are working.
