Life Drawing

Join Oyez founder and professional artist Jo Cushing in our weekly life drawing class. Each week a different subject or model. All abilities are welcome in this friendly group and all materials are supplied. Come along and learn to draw what you see, not what you think you see.
Participants can learn to draw what they see in a relaxed, friendly setting. The small classes cover different materials and techniques, with exercises ranging from quick sketches to longer poses. Beginners are welcome, and the sessions cater to those interested in art forms like sketching and graphic design.
