Course
Term-Time Study
We offer part-time (0.5-3.5 days per week) and full-time (4-5 days per week) placements during our 10-week terms. We have three terms a year and students sign up on a termly basis.
All new students are required to study our Foundation Course, which teaches you the fundamentals of charcoal drawing and oil painting using the Relative Proportion method.
Depending on how many days you can study with us, we then add Cast Drawing, Still Life, Sculpture, Gesture & Anatomy, Figure, Portraiture, & Landscape classes to your schedule, giving you a well-balanced timetable that enables you to put into practice what you learn on the Foundation Course.
Students work in both charcoal and oil paint. All drawing is done from casts or from life, and paintings are done alla prima. We believe these fundamental concepts are crucial for students to develop their own confident style.
Term dates & prices
The Foundation Course is split into two classes: Foundation Drawing focuses on charcoal, and Foundation Painting focuses on oil paint; both classes work from plaster casts and still life objects. The whole Foundation Course is 60 hrs, 30hrs for each class.
Students are encouraged to choose other subjects to study alongside their Foundation classes if they can study more than 2 classes or 1 day a week.
