Drawing Fundamentals

Do you love to sketch but feel you could use some pointers? Or perhaps you don’t even know where to start?

It’s always helpful to learn the basics and gain insight on the steps and techniques you can use to develop your own unique style of drawing.

Join us and you’ll soon go from dithering to drawing.

All Drawing workshops will cover the fundamentals of drawing including composition, form and value, but most importantly they will help teach you how to really look at your subject in order to interpret what your eye sees onto paper.

In short, you will learn how to approach any subject matter and be able to draw it using basic shapes and then building on those eventually adding shading and texture to your subject.

We will often work from still life and real objects as references including plants, fruit, skulls and other found objects. You will be welcome to bring your own references as well.

We will run 2 workshops. Each one is listed as a separate event.
Some materials will be provided and others can be purchased from us on site. Get in touch for more information about materials.
4, 11 & 18 Oct. 2021 1pm to 4pm
25 Oct. 1 & 8 Nov. 2021 9am to 12pm

South Coast Studio offers a variety of art-based workshops which currently include Watercolours, Drawing Fundamentals, Perspective Drawing, Life Drawing and Sketch a Pet.

Prior experience is not required. Our classes are for everyone with an open mind, positive attitude, and willingness to laugh a little while learning.

Located on Wellington’s stunning south coast overlooking Cook Straight, our studio accommodates up to 12 people per session so it’s a social but not crowded affair.

We also host exhibitions, and our studio is available for private events and self-run workshops.
