A Day of Life Drawing

About the Tutor: Roy Eastland

He has exhibited his drawings widely, including: The BP Portrait Award (The National Portrait Gallery), The Jerwood Drawing Prize, ING Discerning Eye Drawing Bursary, and at various museums, galleries and art fairs.

Tutors will use a variety of teaching methods including demonstrations, one to one guidance, group discussions and critiques. You will look at the work of contemporary and historical artists and you will keep a sketchbook/notebook and individual learning plan (ILP) to record goals, ideas, processes and progress. Students will need to understand the potential benefit from the programme of study, read and interpret ideas, communicate responses that are clear, logical and understandable and manage your own time. You will undertake critical reflection and evaluation and be motivated to develop creative skills and enhance/develop personal skills.
One to one guidance, group critiques, self-assessment against individualised learning outcomes stated on the ILP

Please do not purchase anything if you are a new student, your tutor will advise you. If you have done other art classes before please bring anything relevent. You may wish to bring along an A4 sketch book if you have one as well as pencils, charcoal and rubber. We do have an onsite shop where materials can be purchased at a reasonable rate.

Your tutor will be able to advise you. We also have a range of specialist Saturday workshops.
