life drawing classes, liverpool, southport, sefton, merseyside, beginners class
Life drawing is the best subject to learn from if you want to be a competent drawer and artists

Life drawing classes

The life drawing classes are the best way to learn how to draw accurately, as working directly from the model forces you to engage in observational drawing. You can learn the measuring system in a couple of hours, then it's practice!

Members visited the Keith Haring art exhibition at Tate Liverpool recently. This exhibition was worth the visit!

Latest news

 

As a member of the Sefton Art Group, you will have the opportunity to visit local exhibitions, especially to the Tate and the Walker. One of our last visits prior to Covid was to the Keith Haring summer exhibition at the Tate. We also had the benefit of a lecture, which acquainted us with the background of the artist which meant we had a greater understanding of his art. This often sows the seed to members and triggers ideas of their own.

We plan on visits to major local exhibitions at Tate Liverpool and the Walker art galleries in 2023
