Untutored, but Facilitated by Laurence Kell (Untutored Life Drawing) and Giuliana Terran (Portrait Club)

Wednesdays, 6.30pm - 8.30pm 

Starts Wednesday 23 September 2026

BLOCK BOOK: £150 for all 10 weeks in the galleries. This guarantees your place each week.

Alongside our popular and well-established Untutored Life Drawing sessions, enjoy the playful 'Portrait Club' allowing attendees to move between drawing the figure and face, within the magnificent surrounds of the RWA.

With the option to draw life models in long and short poses and portraits of each other, this exciting combined approach will provide a rich and inspiring format for figurative drawing - whether you are inclined towards loose, quick studies, or more detailed drawings.

Basic materials are included, although no charcoal is permitted in the galleries (conte is available, however).

Generally, models in the life drawing session will be nude, but on rare occasions, our life models may wear underwear at their discretion.

*NB - there is no Untutored Life Drawing session during half term on Wednesday 28 October 2026
