About this event

Learn to capture character and expression using drawing, painting, and pastels. Whether you are picking up a pencil for the first time or looking to return to art after a long break, our portraiture classes offer a welcoming space for everyone. From students and working professionals to retirees, these sessions are designed to help you rediscover your creative spark and develop your skills at your own pace. Have you always wanted to learn how to draw faces? Capturing a likeness can feel intimidating, but in this relaxed and supportive environment, you’ll discover that it is both accessible and deeply rewarding. We’ll explore a range of techniques – including drawing, painting, and pastels – focusing on how to translate expression and character onto the canvas. Under expert guidance, you will build the confidence to develop your own unique style. You’ll learn the fundamentals of anatomy and proportion while enjoying the freedom to experiment, eventually creating impressive portraits of friends, family, or even famous faces. There’s no pressure and no expectation of perfection—just encouragement, guidance, and the freedom to experiment in a supportive, creative environment. Come as you are. Bring your curiosity.
