This course is a perfect introduction for those new to the ‘sight size‘method, as well as being an enjoyably intensive opportunity for those who would like to employ their existent technique in a structured environment – drawing from the life model for three hours every morning, followed by cast drawing and, ultimately, painting in the afternoons. Our tutors adapt the teaching system to an individual’s aptitude and process throughout the course to create the most satisfying and challenging experience for each person, and students come away with graphic proof of how much they’ve accomplished.
