About this Event
Our first weekend gathering! 🥂🎨✨
'Invisible Forces – Drawing the Energy Flows in the Human Body'
The human body is nothing near still. It is a constant flow of breath, circulation, tension, and release. Invisible forces travel through us, shaping how we feel, move, and exist in space. Yet, we rarely pause to notice them.
In this session, we will explore the body beyond its visible form. By drawing, we will trace energy flows, map areas of tension and ease, and translate sensations like stretch, pain, and balance into visual language. Inspired by movement practices like yoga, we will learn to see the body not as a fixed structure, but as something fluid, shifting, and alive. Are you ready to draw what cannot be seen?

About :
Our popular life drawing sessions have different themes every month. Please check and https://linktr.ee/earlymasterworks for details.
We create a welcoming and warm environment for all backgrounds, demographics, and skill levels at this creative social life drawing event to meet, drink, draw, and create! We do not instruct; instead, we invite participants to share. We believe that art connects people, and sharings improve creativity!
We host weekly themed untutored gatherings at a variety of one-of-a-kind places in London. You may have also heard of us because of the work we have done with the National Gallery, Open House Festival London, SOHO HOUSE, Urbanism/Architecture Bi-City Biennale (UABB), The European Biennial of Contemporary Art and more.

About :
The London Latvian Centre stands out as a unique and charming focal point for Latvians in the heart of London.
Nestled just a stone's throw from the serene Kensington Gardens and a short walk from the bustling Paddington Station, the property houses a Latvian school; the Latvian Social Centre, serving traditional Latvian beers, drinks, and dishes; a bed and breakfast; and functional rooms acting as a cultural hub for celebrating Latvian heritage, including housing folk dance groups like Londona Dejo, Salinieki, and Jautrais pāris.
The house also exhibits photographs of the people most involved in leading Latvian society, as well as art works and other artefacts created by Latvian artists or donated by Latvians.
