Tutor - Esmé Clutterbuck

Sunday 8 June 2025, 10.30am - 3.30pm  

Experiment with materials and mixed media to develop exciting ways of drawing from the model over a whole day. Expect guided exercises in observation and experimentation to promote spontaneity and investigation rather than finished drawings. You will draw from a model adopting a series of poses: from movement to short poses to longer poses. We will take inspiration from artists’ drawings of the past and present. Suitable for all abilities.

Please wear clothes and footwear suitable for a studio environment and bring a bag or portfolio in which to take work home.
