Online Life Drawing
Lockdown was a dark time for many- an unprecedented global pandemic left us out of a studio for classes with a ban on social events. We decided straight away to take our classes online and try and bring a bit of happiness and creativity into the lives of our drawers! We decided to never charge a set price for our classes- but offered them as ‘pay what you can’. Throughout lockdown, we donated 50% of all of our profits to different charities with an aim of giving something back to the wider community.
Our classes over lockdown were beyond anything we could ever have imagined- we had over 500 people join us a week and collaborated with some of the UK’s largest brands for giveaways. We had people join in from all over the world- Australia, Singapore, South America, India etc… We build up an amazing community and had so many people reach out letting us know that our classes were getting them through lockdown and were the highlight of their week. We have people join in online that have never been able to attend in person classes due to being registered blind, recovering from strokes, suffering from chronic illness or too anxious to attend in person.
In Person Classes
Our in person and online classes are fun, inclusive and a great way to get those creative juices flowing. Whether you’re a complete beginner or the next Van Gogh, all experience levels are welcome. We also offer private and corporate events, both online and offline. Drop us an email to find out more.

How do I join in?
What do I need?
Low on paper? We’ve even had people using discarded cardboard packaging!
How much is it to join?
What’s an online life drawing class like?
We start with a series of short poses, recommending different drawing techniques to help warm you up. Then moving onto some longer poses. During the half time we will stop for an interval, allowing drawers to ‘spotlight’ their work if you’d like to. There’s no pressure to show your pieces. Our classes are a friendly and welcome environment. With people of all ages joining in.
