Let's Draw People!
Great News!
My Live Online Workshop On Drawing People Is Happening!
During the live mini-workshops I taught that were about drawing people, I got such great responses. It seems like people wanted more of it.
Maybe you did too. Maybe you put your name on the interest list that I created, to find out how many people would be interested in taking a full online workshop/masterclass on the topic of drawing people. Then you already received the email that I sent out just before the weekend.
I got quite an overwhelming amount of names on the list, so that gave me the push to actually offer a full workshop, live online. I'm so excited about this!
What:
People are part of life around us, so when including them to your drawings, you’re telling a stronger story, as the viewer can relate even more to what they see. It'll bring your sketchbook to life!
It’s a challenge to capture a person and their characteristics. To choose the right subject and capture them quickly while they pass by, or are in conversation. I’ve gained confidence about my skills by practicing a lot. Now, I want to help you overcome these obstacles and take the fear away.
Together, we can develop your creative courage and make capturing people in your sketchbook a fun and playful experience! I'll give you encouraging tips, techniques, and exercises to help you loosen up and embrace the process.
The workshop will take place on Zoom, Saturday July 29
It will be split into two sessions of 2.5 hours, with a 1 hour break between the two sessions. That could be your lunch break or dinner break, depending on where you are in the world.
The early bird price is $89. After June 24 the price will be $99
There is a limited number of tickets, and quite a bunch of people from the interest list already reserved their spot.
Boost your drawing skills! Learn to draw people with confidence and a playful approach in this empowering live online workshop. You can read all the info and reserve your spot right here.
Things we’ll cover in the workshop:
People drinking on terraces are great for drawing
Live drawing demos and assignments for you to work on during the worksho
Guided exercises to practice and gain confidence for drawing people in your sketchbook
Tips for getting better at proportions, postures, body language and gestures
Tips and ideas to make your urban sketches lively and expressive▪Drawing hands and feet so you don’t need to “hide them” anymore by drawing people with their hands in their pockets
Encouragement to embrace wonkiness, experimentation and playfulness in your sketchbook
Tips and ideas to tell your own unique stories in your sketchbook pages, develop your style and artistic voice.
Show&Tell: opportunity for participants to show what they make during the workshop so we can all learn from each other
For this drawing I was observing people from the other side of the canal
After class:
You’ll get access to the recorded video, so you can rewatch and keep practicing
You’ll get a downloadable freebie as a souvenir and a reminder of everything you learned, so that from now on you will pluck the courage to draw people on the move and on location
You'll have gained confidence and skills to draw people whenever and wherever
As I am currently working on the program, exercises and reference materials for the 5-hour workshop, I am getting more and more excited.
This will be fun!
