Digital Streaming Studio - Evening | Life Drawing in Colour
An online drop-in figure drawing session, broadcast from our studios, that explores chromatic drawing, saturation and transparency.
Experience a drawing class like no other.
These evening drawing sessions, broadcast live from the Royal Drawing School studios, are an opportunity for students to experience the dynamic and dramatic possibilities of the life room from home. Join students online from across the globe to draw from the model, theatrical sets, dancers, musicians and more, with something new each week. Using a range of drawing practices, our expert tutors will guide you through a series of exercises over the course of each session.
In this two-hour life drawing session, tutor Mark Cazalet will focus on an important but frequently missed aspect of colour; the significance of our application of colour as a saturated or transparent surface, and the rich potential of mixing these two opposing visual effects.
We will work in collaboration with a dynamic model, varied coloured settings and differing camera angles to stimulate our visual responses.
