Looking to improve and develop your drawing? Or make studies from the figure? Maybe you simply love life drawing?
Sara Myers’ Saturday life drawing is a relaxed and friendly untutored life drawing group with professional models and lighting, set in our stunning main studio. Each event has a different model and theme carefully chosen to inspire and enhance your drawing skills.
AM - Andy will be doing short poses.
PM - Emily will be doing 4 x 30 minute poses.
Suitable for beginners and more experienced artists alike, working in various styles and media.
As a general rule these classes run two Saturdays in every month, either with morning and afternoon sessions which can be booked individually, or all day life drawing events.
“Sara’s is the best class I’ve experienced. Her approach to teaching and supporting her students allowed me to develop at my own pace while pushing me (gently) to try new approaches. Also, Yardley Arts is an amazing venue, far superior to that of any class I’ve been to, including a good university life drawing class.”
