Course Description

Overview

Reconnect with your creative potential and boost your self-confidence, with a series of fun drawing exercises taught by award-winning illustrator Amandine Thomas!

So, you loved to draw as a kid, but have since become self-conscious? Follow Amandine as she takes you through four easy drawing exercises, designed to help you reconnect with your creative, imaginative, fearless younger self!

In this class, you’ll not only loosen-up and have fun (just like when you were a kid), but you will also learn how to:

  • Go back to basics, with helpful tips you can apply to your own drawing practice
  • Stop feeling self-conscious, by redefining what makes a “good drawing”
  • Identify your strengths and use them to develop your own personal style

Throughout the class, you will be following Amandine’s guidelines to create a series of expressive self-portraits, using the technique of your choice.

So, whether you are a complete beginner looking to unlock your artistic potential, or an experienced illustrator keen to keep that creative spark alive, grab your favourite drawing tools and dive in!
