What we’re about

Welcome to Drawing in the City, an outdoor sketching group, where we embrace everyday life in the city with our sketchbook in hand. A chance to escape our routines and be a wanderer, diving into drawing the world around us in all its shapes and forms. From people, places, to buildings.

These are semi-guided sessions that explore and experiment different methods of drawing in your sketchbook. The sessions start with a short intro with a couple of exercises to focus on before exploring and drawing in a chosen area, we then meet up again for a short break halfway and for an intro to the next exercise. Here we also have a chance to share feedback and discuss work. At the end of the session we have another chance to meet up, share work and discuss ideas, and have some feedback.
Each session focus on different exercises to guide, challenge and build your confidence in drawing on location and outside.

This drawing session is for everyone, for all levels of drawing and artistry. It's a chance to enjoy drawing outside, revive and learn some new techniques and meet new people.

Sessions will be led by artist Emily Morey a painter and drawer from London and creator of @drinkanddrawevents in Berlin. Emily has taught drawing and painting workshops in Berlin for a few years now, and at Burnt Sienna art school in Berlin. Emily studied with a variety of professors at the Royal Drawing School in London and a painting degree at Brighton university. She is excited to share her experiences and techniques of drawing outside as well as to draw with you!
