UNTUTORED LIFE DRAWING
In-studio LIFE DRAWING in our Enniskerry venue every THURSDAY.
Places can be booked through the buttons below. You will then be added to the invitation to join mailing list.
We are doing our best to provide spaces for everyone eager to participate in our weekly untutored life drawing classes.
Blocks are run by the month and will typically have 3-5 sessions.
Starting Thursday May 22nd, we’re introducing an opportunity to paint a longer pose, while still keeping the same variety of shorter warm-ups in the morning. It’s a chance to slow down, observe more deeply, and work with greater focus.
Here’s what the new structure will look like:
Morning Session | 10am–1pm
10:00–11:15: A series of shorter poses (great for warming up or quick studies).
11:15–11:30: Tea break.
11:30–13:00: A single longer pose begins, suitable for both portraiture & figure pieces.
Afternoon Session | 2–5pm
Continuation of the same pose from late morning.
You can still attend just the morning, just the afternoon, or both. This new format will offer artists the opportunity to paint/draw the same pose for 4.5hrs. The sessions remain untutored, open to all levels, and rooted in the belief that drawing from life is one of the most important ways to grow as an artist.

ABOUT THIS COURSE
Life Drawing is a drawing of the human form (nude) in any of its various shapes and postures using any of the drawing media either as highly detailed, anatomically correct renderings, or loose and expressive sketches.
The class will be hosted live and untutored from the Schoolhouse for Art life room. Model poses will be directed by our artist in residence.
A professional model (female/male nude) will pose in a number of short gestures and medium poses during the AM session and a single long pose for the PM session (ideal for those who want to paint).
