Would you like to learn to draw like Onnie?

What we’ll do:

Dynamic life drawing is two hours of quick posing and instruction, wine, snacks and two longer poses to practice what you’ve learned. Whether you’ve never drawn before or you’re an experienced artist, everyone is welcome.
 
Onnie will be discussing the importance of depicting weight and force in your drawings, how to use weight and force to give your figures life and dynamism, and providing lots of anatomy tips to help you make dramatic and beautiful art. 
 
After this short lecture there will be quick poses to explore the importance of gesture, followed by longer poses to allow for anatomical exploration, and finally two long poses to allow artists to practice all of these elements together.
 
Assisted by professional dancer Cleo (@harpy_pd) as our model making some breathtaking shapes for us to draw.
