About this course

Participants produce a series of rapid drawings through changing exercises that vary in pace, emphasis and degree of direction. Activities draw on observation and imagination, with traditional and contemporary approaches used to examine, alter and extend drawn imagery. Teaching combines briefings, demonstrations, set tasks, peer review and group discussion. Learners explore mark-making and respond to timed prompts, while some exercises leave space for individual reasoning and collaborative development of ideas.
