Unconventional Life Drawing

Step away from the standard nude and dive into a life drawing experience bursting with colour, character, and creative chaos. Led by Zanna, this is life drawing with a twist - think costumes, props, and poses you’ll never forget.

What Makes It Different?

Our models won’t just pose - they’ll perform. Expect vintage theatrical outfits, wedding dresses, funky accessories, unusual props, and delightfully wacky ensembles. You’ll still get varying degrees of nudity for those who want the best of both worlds, but the real magic is in the storytelling and drama each pose brings.

Why You’ll Love It

  • Break out of your sketching routine with expressive faces, textured fabrics, and dynamic body language
  • Perfect for animators, fashion designers, comic artists, and anyone hungry for fresh inspiration
  • A friendly, welcoming environment whether you’re a confident illustrator or picking up a pencil for the first time
  • Regularly changing themes so every session feels brand new

What’s Included

  • Professional life models in unique, themed costumes (plus optional nudity)
  • A variety of expressive poses, from quick sketches to longer studies
  • Themed nights to keep your creativity flowing
  • A relaxed, social atmosphere for artists of all levels
  • Tea, coffee, and light refreshments to keep you fuelled

Bring your own sketching materials, or borrow basic supplies on the night.

Wonky lines, wonderful people, wildly good times.
Hello there! We’re The Wonky Line Cult- a Bristol-based creative events collective hosting joyful, low-pressure workshops and weird, wonderful experiences that bring people together through art, play, and community.
We believe creativity should be fun, messy, social, and open to absolutely everyone, no “right way” to draw, paint, sculpt, or express yourself here. Whether you’re a professional doodler or someone who hasn’t picked up a pencil since school, you’re welcome in our wonky world. What makes us special? It’s the combo of chaos + care; each session is lovingly designed to help people connect, loosen up, and enjoy the creative process without pressure. Most of all, we want our spaces to feel playful, inclusive, and kind- a little pocket of joyful rebellion in the middle of your week.
Come join the cult (it’s not a real cult, promise). Bring your weird ideas. Meet brilliant strangers. Make stuff. Be wonky!
