EmailLooking for ways to take time to yourself, relaxing and getting creative? Then come along for this still-life drawing session, where you will be guided in the art of drawing a range of interesting objects!
This visually engaging and relaxing drawing session provides the perfect opportunity for people of all levels to momentarily unplug from the world and tune into a creative space.
Whether you would like to hone your existing skills, quiet a busy mind or try something completely new, this is the perfect opportunity to do just that.
Natural and man-made objects will be arranged on white wooden plinths, with a focus on colour, shape and form as your host Lauren guides you through the evening.
What to expect:
- Time to unwind in a warm, creative space with high ceilings
- Interesting still life arrangements to inspire you
- Using paper on clipboards you'll choose from a range of materials such as pastels, pens and pencils
- A series of warm-ups in charcoal, before moving on to extended drawing at your own pace
- All materials provided for you
- Mellow beats playing in the background
- Tasty light refreshments will be served
- Your drawings to take home
You don't need to be an experienced artist to enjoy this experience: come along and get creative under the expert guidance of your host, Lauren.

Lauren was such a great, relaxed but encouraging teacher, especially for someone like myself who’s not drawn for quite some time. It was a really great class and I will definitely be booking again

Me and my son had a really fantastic evening. It was calming, great to do something new. We didn’t feel rushed or ‘not good enough’ as neither of us draw often at all. We would definitely recommend it to others. Lauren was so lovely. Very warm and welcoming. She was patient and engaging. Thank you Lauren x
