We’ve uploaded some new images from one of our hens’ parties. Take a looky-see in the Artists’ Gallery. This was a particularly fun party, held at someone’s house, they ran out of paper so just decided to draw on the walls as the house is being renovated anyway. Looks great! The home-owner thought it was fantastic and I quote, “Thanks for organising such a great event for my hens’ night.. ..when we got to sketching on the walls – a fabulous addition to my lounge which I certainly don’t regret!”

Drawn From Life receives masses of enquiries from people wanting to be life models to the point where we are having to address it publicly as it’s all getting a bit overwhelming!
Firstly, a big thank you to everyone for their interest and for taking the time to contact us but we kindly ask that people desist from sending any emails or calling.
We have a large waiting list of applicants wanting to learn the tricks of the trade and training workshops are occasionally offered for those looking to become life models. Any beginners would need to complete this training before being offered any work. However, no workshops will be offered for some time until places become available within our roster.
Currently DFL has a full roster of models so the books are closed and this means unfortunately, there is little that we can offer at this stage. Any changes to this will be posted to the website so check back every now and then for updates. Better yet, join our mailing list and get your news hot off the presses.
Good luck though!

We’ve had a very positive response to the news about our new Foundation Life Course. For those who are still ‘umming and arring’, there are a couple of places left and now is the time to fill ‘em up!
Those who have studied with us before are also encouraged to sign up again for this course as we have a new teacher who will offer different ideas and techniques to those taught previously and tasks will be set for those above beginner level.

Happy New Year! Hope you’ve all been enjoying your Christmas break.
Drawn From Life is looking forward to a big year and to start proceedings, we are excited to announce our new Foundation Life Drawing Course. The start date for this class will be Tuesday, February 9. There has been a lot of interest in this course, so make sure you get in quick to secure a place.
This course provides an introduction to life drawing, an art form which is recognised as the cornerstone of art education.
The human figure provides unique challenges to artists and the strategies taught here are classical, structural drawing methods that have been in use for hundreds of years to successfully describe the figure on paper.
The course is taught over a period of 9 weeks and we cover the following practical and theoretical concepts.
- Composition
- Perspective
- Tone
- Drawing materials and Techniques
