About this Event
Experience a drawing class like no other.
These evening drawing sessions, broadcast live from the Royal Drawing School studios, are an opportunity for students to experience the dynamic and dramatic possibilities of the life room from home. Join students online from across the globe to draw from the model, theatrical sets, dancers, musicians and more, with something new each week. Using a range of drawing practices, our expert tutors will guide you through a series of exercises over the course of each session.
In this two-hour life drawing session, tutor Katy Papineau will guide you through drawing a figure posed in different kinds of light. You will use colour materials on coloured paper to capture the atmosphere of light at different times of day: the haziness of sunrise, the coolness of moonlight, and the low, warm light of golden hour. We will use depictions of light in film and art history as our starting point for lighting the model, taking inspiration from artists such as Sorolla, Ofili, Turner and more. All levels welcome.
Suggested Material list:
• Coloured paper, or paper prepared with coloured grounds (a variety of warm, cool, dark and light colours), using either acrylic paint or gouache. We would recommend using paper between A4 and A2 size.
• Colour materials of your choice: soft pastels, oil pastels, gouache or watercolour (or a combination). Make sure you have a good range of colours.
Please note: The Royal Drawing School online models will not pose nude. Models in this series will be semi clothed.
