London Life Drawing (previously: Bethnal Green Life Drawing)

 
 
 

This event is for learning to draw, whether you are a beginner, returning to draw after a break, or looking for fresh ideas to develop your understanding and skills. I provide one to one tuition at a cost of £10 for the session. We will draw some sculpted heads using simple forms and shading, and then you can progress at your own pace, choosing objects that you like.

All welcome! Please bring your own drawing pencils, eraser and sharpener, and a sketchbook (A4 size I suggest). The Museum has stools that you can borrow. Please note MUSEUM POLICY - use a hand-held pad and only draw with pencils.

Meet on the seats in the Great Court next to the information desk, which is to your right as you enter the Great Court. We will draw in the galleries from 14.25 pm until 16.25 pm.
