About this Event

Unlock your creativity and enter into a world of colour, texture & personal expression through paint at this four hour workshop in the centre of London!

Whether you’re a total beginner or an experienced artist, this class offers something for everyone, with lots of one-to-one tuition available, a relaxed, supportive atmosphere and a focus on creative freedom. All materials are included so all you need to bring is yourself & an open mind. We work with acrylic paint to minimise the potential for mess & to ensure that most paintings will be dry by the end of the class, but you are welcome to bring your own materials along should you prefer.

The workshop is led by figurative artist Dan Whiteson, whose vibrant and passionate approach to teaching drawing & painting has inspired students across London and the UK for well over a decade. His unique, energetic style encourages experimentation and creativity, ensuring that every student feels confident and inspired to push their boundaries.

The session will begin with a 20 minute drawing warm up of quicker poses, before two poses of around 30 minutes to transfer to painting & further loosen your creative muscles, followed by a focused long pose of 2 hours, allowing you to more deeply explore painting from the human form. There will be breaks every half hour to ensure both comfort for the model, and to maximise the amount of support available to anyone who needs it.

*Please note* I never want money to be a barrier to the arts, and I'm fully aware that times are hard for many right now. If you would like to join the session but are unable to pay full price, please do not hesitate to message me directly.
