¡Cómo dibujar comida fabulosa!

Each week in this ongoing class, we will explore drawing a different item of food in order to build a range of skills. I am a qualified art teacher with over 13 years experience and I love to help students develop their abilities! All my drawing exercises are tried and tested and have helped thousands of children and adults to improve their drawing skills.

Weekly drawings will cover use of line, tone, shape, proportion and perspective. Using a second camera showing my live demonstration I will explain each technique, showing clearly how different effects can be achieved. Students will be able to ask questions and then follow along with me while I give encouraging feedback and tips for progressing further. Each week will be a standalone exercise. Skills, such as  breaking objects down into simple shapes and shading, will be revisited weekly to help students develop their understanding further. Over a few sessions, participants will learn how to "see" their subjects in a new way that will help them tackle drawing anything with confidence. Quite often, students who have been with me for a while begin to show me drawings they have completed outside of class and are proud of. This is my goal - to get every learner excited about drawing. Where possible, I try to include some "freestyle" time towards the end of the lesson, where learners are free to finish their drawing in whichever way they like for example adding a background. In this way they can use their imaginations to make their drawings unique to them!

No experience is necessary and this class is very suitable for beginner artists. (However, learners who really lack confidence in art may wish to book onto one of my "Build Art Skills and Confidence" classes first as a starting point.) 

Learners will need a supply of paper, a 3b or 4b pencil (ideally),  an eraser, pencil sharpener and some q-tips/cotton buds for blending. 

Join for one class or stay for them all! See below for a weekly breakdown of food items to draw. (Class will continue after Christmas if there is sufficient interest.)
