Heads and Hands: Painting the Half-Length Portrait Tutor: Ivy Smith Week 1<br />
5 day course: Monday 2 - Friday 6 July<br />
Studios 1 and 2 / 10am-5pm<br />
<strong>The</strong> head is the most particular and revealing indicator of individuality, but the hands come<br />
a close second. This course will focus on the half-length clothed portrait, exploring its rich<br />
potential for composition and colour relationships in paint. Students will have a choice of<br />
models and a final three day pose which will allow an in-depth response to the figure. Suitable<br />
for all levels.<br />
Fee: £200<br />
One Week One Pose: <strong>Drawing</strong> and Painting Tutor: Claudia Carr<br />
Week 2<br />
5 day course: Monday 9 - Friday 13 July<br />
Studio 2 /10am-5pm<br />
Students will work from the life model in one pose for the whole week, allowing for sustained<br />
perceptual concentration, with the freedom to experiment and revise. Through drawing,<br />
painting, colour demonstrations and discussion we will explore tone, colour, light, temperature,<br />
spatial relationships, composition and pictorial structure and rhythm. <strong>The</strong> course is<br />
designed for students of all levels.<br />
Fee: £200<br />
<strong>The</strong> Etching Week Tutor: Thomas Gosebruch<br />
Week 2<br />
5 day course: Monday 9 - Friday 13 July<br />
Printroom /10am-5pm<br />
Etching can be so much more than cross-hatched lines. We’ll explore other ways of drawing,<br />
painting on, and printing from, the metal plate. Etching is not just a means of reproducing<br />
drawings — it often takes off in its own surprising ways. This course is for those who have<br />
always appreciated etchings but have never made one before, as well as for experienced<br />
etchers.<br />
Fee: £200<br />
<strong>Drawing</strong> London’s Skyline<br />

5 day course: Monday 16 - Friday 20 July<br />
Out of House /10am-5pm<br />
This course is an opportunity for students to record and draw London’s skyline in its Olympic<br />
year, working with three tutors with three different approaches to city drawing. Students will<br />
visit sites from the South Bank to Parliament Hill and will also draw from indoor viewing<br />
platforms including views over the river from the Lighthouse at Trinity Buoy Wharf and the<br />
OXO Tower. This is a course for students interested in capturing the atmosphere and energy<br />
of the city, or for those wishing to explore the use of perspective in drawing.<br />
