About this event

  • 1 hour 30 minutes

Age Guide: 7-13

What will you learn?

  • Learn about the proportions of the human face and how to start get started drawing
  • Move away from drawing hard lines around everything to make your portraits look more realistic
  • Learn how to use shading


What will you take away?

In just one session, you’ll have made a beautiful drawing that can be taken home and framed. You’ll have developed a toolkit of skills to take away, too!


Here’s what others have said:

“Thank you so much for all the classes, I’ve really enjoyed them and I’m really happy with my self-portrait. You’ve really taught me a lot about the angles of the face and the eyes. It’s been very good to learn new things about shading. I’m sad now it’s finished but I hope I can do the next class too” Child Student.


All materials included. Just bring yourself!
