About

Join Jordan Cook in making quick and playful drawings with charcoal into ambitious and imaginative works of art.

In this session you'll learn how to sharpen your skills in drawing from life and the world around you and explore the various ways you can use charcoal to draw.

Your tutor will guide you through both slower, focused drawing and faster sketching exercises, with space to work in your own way.

We'll also focus on building confidence in expressive drawings, as well as working through extended periods of observation, using a variety of still life objects as our subject.

Basic materials will be provided. Suitable for ages 16+. All experience levels welcome!
