Im often asked if I use photographs for drawing from - and of course I do! They are an excellent reference point - but there are so many tips and pitfalls to learn and beware of -so that the results are not too static and lifeless. By looking at a selection of photographs I will help you decide what you need to help you learning to draw what you cant always see in front of you. Understanding how to transform your work, no matter what the subject - landscape, people or pets - I can help you improve! (thats quite a bold statement - but Im prepared to stand by it!) Bring a range of images, and drawing materials and I will demonstrate how to go about achieving success its as much about what to leave out as what to include!
