Join artist Ilker Cinarel from our studio in St Ives for this Picasso-inspired webinar with a clothed model.

As painter, sculptor, etcher, lithographer, ceramicist and designer, Picasso’s influence on twentieth century art was enormous. Famous for inventing a new style of painting called Cubism, Picasso painted his models from different perspectives within the same painting. 

Explore this abstract way of working from the comfort of your own home as artist Ilker Cinarel guides you through a series of exercises which aim to capture the figure from various angles. See how to play with perspective and form to create drawings in this Cubist style. Learn a more sculptural way of drawing and loosen your approach to capturing the model. 

Starting with 5 and 10 minute poses, these will be followed by longer poses to develop your drawings. You will will draw from two screens focused on different angles of the model. Starting with the head, you will then move on to a number of quick poses where you focus on the whole body. 

Recorded in our studio overlooking Porthmeor Beach, you will draw alongside Ilker from the model. Get a unique insight into how to abstract the figure, working from various perspectives and integrating them into one image.

The screen will be split between the model and Ilker’s paper throughout the session so you can draw and paint along with Ilker. Your view will be different due to how we position the cameras.
