**Join artist Robin-Lee Hall for a masterclass in how to paint in the ancient medium of egg tempera.** Egg tempera is a beautifully delicate medium, allowing you to build luminescent layers and fine detail. The medium was used by artists such as Sandro Botticelli and Leonardo da Vinci, and helped to define their painting and drawing styles. The process of creating an egg tempera painting is unlike any other painting medium. There are no harmful solvents involved, just powdered pigment mixed with egg and water. It feels at first like watercolour and dries just as quickly. However, successive layers of paint create a luminous colour saturated finish. The medium also allows you to create intricate detail and layering of mark making to create volumous surfaces. Join us to draw with pure colour! ***Outline of the day*** Participants will learn how to make their own paint, learn about raw pigments, mix colour and handle the medium. This will then be applied to developing a small work, either from still life or a reference image. All materials are provided. ***Your Tutor*** Robin-Lee Hall is a prize-winning artist and Past President of the Royal Society of Portrait Painters. She works primarily in egg tempera, but also uses other mediums including digital drawing on an iPad. Robin lectures and delivers workshops at the National Gallery, the National Portrait Gallery and the Royal Academy of Arts. Her work has been exhibited widely, in and around London, including the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition and in the National Portrait Gallery’s Portrait Award. **Portrait in Egg Tempera with Robin-Lee Hall** **Saturday 11 April** **10-4.30pm** **£110 All materials included** [MORE INFO & BOOKING](https://londondrawing.com/product/portrait-in-egg-tempera-masterclass-with-artist-robin-lee-hall-11-april-2026/) **VENUE:** **Artizan Street Library & Community Centre** 1 Artizan Street London E1 7AF

**The workshop consists of two sessions:** **Sunday 12th and Monday 13th of April** **10.00am- 4.00pm (on-site)** For many of us, working from life -especially with a model- is a cornerstone of our artistic practice. Building on a long tradition, we often reach a point where we crave more personal expression in our work. Whether this urge arises on day one or after years of practice, the question remains: How do we find our unique artistic voice? How can we expand into abstraction or imagination? How do we bridge the gap between working with a model in the studio and continuing our creative journey at home? Sharing from their personal practice, Suzon will guide participants in discovering and nurturing their own creative voice throughout this two-day workshop. An opportunity to expand your creative toolbox and discover new ways of working. **Day 1** We’ll explore visual brainstorming techniques and discover how to infuse our paintings with a deeply personal touch. Focusing on one key concept at a time, we’ll experiment with pushing, stretching, and playing with these ideas to develop a language that feels both personal and intentional. • How can we use values to evoke specific sensations? • Which colours best convey our emotions? • How can our marks and composition and add deeper layers of meaning to our work? By the end of the day, you’ll have learned new skills and ways to engage creatively. Most importantly, you’d have remembered that ‘Learning to paint well’ is one great thing, but ‘Learning to create the paintings that no one else’s but you could paint’ is the true magic! **Day 2, working with a model** We’ll apply our expanded creative toolbox to the unique challenge of working with a model. Moving beyond straightforward representation, we’ll create paintings that are grounded in reality yet elevated by your personal artistic choices. No two paintings will be the same: they’ll each be a mirror of your unique artistic voice. These two days are perfect for anyone eager to deepen their connection to their creative voice and develop a more personal painting practice. Whether you are an experienced painter or new to the practice, Suzon welcomes participants at all levels and with any medium: oil, acrylic, gouache, colour pencils… come with what inspires you! The workshop will take place in a supportive and inspiring environment, encouraging creative risk-taking, curiosity, and the discovery of your own visual signature. We plan to share a vegetarian lunch, optional. **[Info and bookings on our website](https://www.dulwichartgroup.co.uk/product/beyond-figure-painting-explore-your-art-voice/)**
