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 />

Week 3<br />

Tutors: Sharon Beavan / Melissa Scott Miller / Martin Shortis<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 />

Fee: £200<br />
