About the course:
Nature drawing is more than simply drawing what is in front of you. It’s a process of discovery as you explore nature's inner workings and its surroundings. Gaining an understanding of your subject not only enhances your awareness and appreciation of nature but also influences the way you draw and create.

Delivered in quite a different format to Drawing One, Drawing Two will be an immersive environment delving into a different nature theme each week covering the diversity of both the botanical and animal worlds and applying it to how we draw in graphite, pen and ink.
Each week, discover the joy and wonder of nature by exploring different aspects of the theme by various means including through scientific findings, habitat research, anatomy observations and examination under microscopes. As we explore you will learn how to interpret these subjects through the eyes of an artist applying the foundational principles including composition, values, and perspective.
Drawing will be a mix of demonstrations where you will follow steps and draw along with the tutor, with time to practice and experiment through the many drawing techniques. This will also allow you to explore and find your own style of artistic expression with assistance and guidance from your tutor as you go. For this we will utilise the extensive range of specimens and equipment available at NatureArt Lab.
Pre-requisites: Recommended for 16+ aged beginners who have completed Drawing One Foundation Studies, and those wanting to revise their practice and build a solid foundation for skills.
