Last Saturday. Animation.

We had a splendid time on Saturday making animations. Working together as a big group first of all and then in smaller groups.
The results were brilliant.










Some animations are missing from this post due to upload difficulties - if you'd like them uploaded another time please let me know.

New Dates Added

There are new Saturday Drawing dates on the Upcoming Sessions page in the right-hand column. -------------------->

The Yurt Cafe.

From this Saturday we will be offering Lunch Club after Saturday Drawing! We're aware that some Saturday Drawing devotees travel a long way for the classes and we've always felt bad sending you away with only biscuits in your belly. So we've hit on the answer . . . We will be offering a lunch in The Yurt. It will be a simple (but ample) vegetarian lunch served in  superb surroundings by our dear friend Faye at the very reasonable price of £5. She's hosted such events before and they've always been wonderful.It will be a good chance to talk together more informally and build on the friendships and creative alliances we've all been forging these past years.If you would like to join us for lunch we only ask that you tell us ahead of time so we have an idea of numbers, you can do this when you book your Saturday Drawing session. We also welcome friends, family and acquaintances for lunch too - just let us know.
So there you have it! Exciting developments, hope you can all make it.

Saturday 26th Jan - We worked with colour.

This time around for Saturday Drawing we were inspired by Craigie Aitchison and the blanket of snow still covering the garden to use some colours . . . some very bright colours.

December 1st 2012

A very fine session - looking at vitality and forcing ourselves to draw to a beat. Making multiple lines inspired by Giacometti drawings.

Saturday November 3rd. Blotting paper strips.

Working with blotting paper rescued from the bin we made objects. Thinking about forms and nets and planes. The results were beautiful, we were inspired to make an exhibition of Saturday Drawing outcomes - if anyone knows of a small space we could use please let us know. We also had a visit from and exciting guest lecturer: Louise Bourgeois.

What we did, October 13th - Continuous Line Drawing.

A splendid session focusing on the use of a continuous line with a mixture of long and short exercises. It was a very jolly session (these photos make it look otherwise) with a little improvising and some very beautiful results.
