Join us for 1 hour and 45 mins of online portrait drawing every 2nd Tuesday evening, live via Zoom. This class is online and is therefore open to everyone in the world with access to internet.
AGENDA
- To start, I will teach some portrait drawing tips to get you started like facial proportions and structure.
- Next, we will warm up with 1 and 2 minute portrait poses using reference photos, followed by 5 and 10mins.
- 5 Min Break
- Finally, 20 and 30-minute portrait poses.
- Share our work with the class!
For these portrait practices, we will use reference photos of people of various ages, genders, ethnicities - you will draw approximately 10-15 different people in one Zoom session.
Take this class to improve your portrait drawing skills, master expressions and likeness through portrait repetitions and speed.
- Bring drawing materials for the class.
- You will receive the Zoom link once you register.
- Keep your camera ON during the session – to maintain the sense of community. If you cannot turn your camera on, let me know with a message at the start of the session.

How late can I join a session?
You can join up to one hour late before the end of class. If this is your first time attending, please wait for the break for me to explain the process, otherwise you can jump right in. You may leave whenever you like! This is your time so you can make use of it how you like.
Do I need any past experience to come to a life drawing class?
No. Everyone has to start somewhere, and these exercises will help you loosen up whether beginner, intermediate or advance. However, please be prepared to jump right in and start drawing right away with us.
If I miss a class, can I watch a recorded version?
No, these classes are not recorded.
Will you teach me drawing?
The idea behind this workshop is that the best learning drawing comes from DOING. This workshop is not teaching (I have other courses for that) but may give some tips for you during the workshop if you share your work with me.
