Drop in drawing and drop in painting sessions for beginner to professional artists
Life and Portrait Pose with Fred Crayk
I emphasise the ‘Open’ in (Open Studio) Drop in Sessions. I expect students to paint however they want. My interventions involve advice on technique and how to translate visual information into painted marks. I also react to work and initiate a discussion about individual paintings produced in an art historical context.
