Life Drawing Sessions

A tutored course focusing on drawing skills and fundamentals at your own pace. About the class Explore the fundamentals of drawing by bringing awareness to rhythm, proportions, and form. Whether you’ve hesitated to begin drawing or are looking to expand your own practice this course will open up your perception as you learn about simple concepts that will help you move toward developing more complex drawings. This course will focus on fundamentals using both studies of simple still life objects and imaginative exercises to help grasp basic concepts of drawing. Although you will develop relevant skills along the way, the aim is not to produce academic drawings, but more to bring deeper awareness and clarity - or “seeing” - when drawing from life or producing ideas from imagination. It is a sculptural approach to drawing but is relevant to all art forms and underpins the great traditions. It's suitable for beginners and intermediate students as you will be guided at your own particular level and pace to develop your skills and perception within a small class environment. About the teacher Damien Lucas began his study of drawing with the late David Wilson in Bathurst in 1997. Wilson then introduced him to master sculptor Tom Bass, which lead to the full time study and practise of sculpture. He also completed his Bachelor of Fine Arts at National Art School, Sydney, in 2004, and received the Defiance Award for Excellence in Sculpture. Damien’s 24 years + experience of teaching is available directly to you and will guide you along your journey in the visual arts! Prices: $40 (casual class), $210 (6 classes) Times: Wednesdays 6 - 8pm
