Description
Observer/Observed: Life Drawing for Performers
with Dan Whiteson
A life drawing class in which we play with the traditional artist/model dynamic and participants get to explore their creativity on both sides of the canvas (fully clothed!).
Participants will take it in turns to model for the group, exploring their physicality and bringing a whole new level of insight to the process of understanding and ultimately representing the human figure.
With a dynamic, informal approach and a focus on experimentation and creative freedom, this fully tutored class is suitable for any level of artistic experience; learn to embrace risk, to feel the benefit of stepping outside of your comfort zone and to make work inspired by observation but ultimately shaped by your own artistic impulses.
When: Thursday 14th October
Time: 1 - 3pm
Where: Wildcard Studios, 18 Balderton Street, London, W1K 6TG
