Thinking Through Art is our inspiring six-week general drawing and painting course, designed to strengthen the way you think as an artist, helping you develop confidence across a range of media, subjects and approaches.
Over the 6 weeks we’ll present 3 projects exploring a selection of drawing and painting media – there will be space to work on your own projects too, with guidance throughout. Some sessions will challenge your analytical abilities, focusing on observation, composition, perspective and tonal structure. Others will encourage a more intuitive and expressive approach through colour, mark-making, texture and experimentation. Along the way, we’ll discover how these different ways of working complement one another, leading to more thoughtful, confident and personal artwork.
Working in a variety of media—including pencil, pen, charcoal, watercolour, acrylics and mixed media—you’ll investigate landscapes, portraits, still life and imaginative subjects while learning the principles that underpin successful artwork. Through demonstrations, tuition and friendly group discussion, you’ll develop a deeper understanding of not only how to create art, but why artists make the choices they do.
Whether you’re new to drawing and painting or looking for new inspiration, Thinking Through Art will help you see more clearly, think more creatively and approach every painting with greater purpose and confidence.
