Many artists who join the free Monday portrait sessions have told me they would value some guidance in drawing people.
In July, I will be beginning an occasional series of live online guided Portrait Drawing sessions with an invited model.
The first session will be on Tuesday July 14th, 9-10.30am and repeated at 6—7.30pm, Paris Time.
︎ Check 9am Paris Time (CEST) in your timezone.
︎ Check 6pm Paris Time (CEST) in your timezone.
The class will be a series of 'recipes' for how to make expressive drawings with different material combinations and approaches. We will look to art history to learn, exercise our ability to look and then see, and find flow.
The portrait model will be different each time.
In advance of the class you will be given a materials list with suggested tools, materials and support.
The class will be recorded and can then be used for practice. There is a padlet for sharing your work with the group that took part.
You can book a ticket for the portrait classes with unlimited replays in the Drawing is Free Patreon shop, price €17
(Cost excludes VAT/Sales Tax, currency conversion and any Apple App Store fee. €17 is about £15 / $20. In the UK, the cost after VAT is £18.60).
IMPORTANT: if you buy through the Patreon Mobile App on iOS, Apple adds a 30% App Store fee to the cost of the ticket. You can avoid this additional cost by visiting Patreon on the web in your browser to buy the ticket.

Help me to create more opportunities for drawing
If you enjoy the work of Drawing is Free, and find it valuable, I would be honoured if you’d consider supporting Drawing is Free at Patreon. Every month I create new drawing prompt booklets, and run online drawing sessions for supporters. You can follow along for free, but paid supporters help create time for me to develop new ideas and projects to benefit everyone.
