Steven Buckler believes that everyone can draw! Join him in this practical workshop exploring buildings, perspective and observation.

You’ll discover simple techniques to help you make sense of what you see, using perspective and observation to draw buildings with confidence.

Working in pencil before adding colour with ink or watercolour, you’ll create your own finished artwork while discovering how artists use line, tone and perspective to bring places to life. You’ll leave with practical techniques that can be applied to anything you choose to draw.

For children aged 7-10, this is a Kids Art Club like no other, where children get to work on easels and use the same high art quality materials as our adult courses. They are taught by experienced artist tutors and start to take their first steps as Young Artists.

SCHOLARSHIPS: Thanks to generous support from our fee paying families and St Ives Rotary, we are able to offer up to 4 scholarship places per session awarded on a need basis. If you are on a low income please contact [email protected] for an application form to apply for a free scholarship place.
