Starting from basic principles we learn how to make marks that matter.

Learning Gesture drawing, value, hue, composition, colour theory, life drawing, perspective, urban sketching, pencil & pen techniques, working with charcoal and chalk. Watercolour and plein-air sketching. Sketching as a life-skill for creative thinking. How to generate ideas.

Lessons normally draw from life but may also draw from imagination and memory. I encourage all students to keep a sketch journal and to use it constantly.

Sketching is something you can learn, in the same way that you learn a language or to drive a car. It just takes guidance and deliberate practice.
