Life Drawing Jericho

Angela Burdick

This was the best way to  begin drawing practice in the New Year for me.  Great tutoring, venue and model.  A well organised and a useful, pleasurable session.

Wonderfully wise tutoring by Mike who really understands live-drawing, this group has a great atmosphere with input from other students as well as first class model and lovely light in a welcoming room.

I'm new to charcoals and life drawing, but wanted to take on the challenge of faces, limbs, hands and feet.  My first session was brilliant.  The first hour was spent on exercises, eg lighting sketches, then drawing with your non dominant hand, then drawing without letting the charcoal leave the paper.  Then the second hour was spent on a long portrait.  Paper and materials are all provided.  If free on a Saturday this will be my go to place.  

Another lovely session this saturday morning spent drawing in Jericho with wise and helpful tutor, Mike and excellent model in good studion space.

Spent another terrific session life-drawing - great tutor, model and studio.

Spent another satisfying morning drawing with a  great group in well lit studio, with a terrific model and excellent tuition from wise Mike.

Another lively session in the studio with stimulating opinions among the artists, great model and wise and knowlegable tutor.  Thank you

Excellent tutor and model in lovely space.

An excellent session. Lots of freedom and encouragement - but help if you need it. Fantastic model. My daughter and I went together as an Artists’ Date. Will go again. Highly recommend. 

Great atmosphere at this life-drawing session.  Terrific tutoring and great model in lovely light space.

A friendly and welcoming group, great space with good lighting. The models are professional and able to hold good poses. Help and guidance is usually on offer if needed.
A really enjoyable session.

Life Drawing Sunday

We are delighted to welcome back to SSJ our marathon man, Mike! He's very lean and has a well defined physique, so he's ideal for those artists who want to refine their anatomy drawing.  The session is untutored, starts at 2pm and finishes at 5pm with a couple of breaks. There's plenty of parking beside the village hall, easels, boards, paper and media, plus a relaxing playlist and nice refreshments!

Stanton St John - Life Drawing Sundays

It’s a whole different experience painting outdoors, and this is especially true in relation to life drawing. Senses are heightened, breeze, birdsong and the changing light all add to the pleasure, And drawing a model in a beautiful garden setting is sublime. 

This is the fourth year we’ve run En Plein Air life drawing, and we meet again in The Turrill Sculpture Garden in the heart of Summertown, Oxford on Sunday 10th August.  Our session will run for 2.5 hours and we will have a picnic break halfway through, We will provide wine, water and nibbles, so if you would like to bring something more to snack on, feel free! 

This is a popular event and places sell out quickly, so if you wish to join us be sure to book as soon as possible. 

If the weather is not suitable for this outdoor event, it will be cancelled on or before the evening of the 9th August and full refunds offered.

After some years away from life drawing this was a great way to be re-introduced - very warm helpful reception, no pressure, comfortable venue, good facilities (including parking) and excellent life model.
