Inspired by the draped fabric found in Frederick, Lord Leighton’s iconic Flaming June, you’ll learn how to draw movement and texture in this guided life drawing session. No experience necessary and all drawing abilities are welcome.
The session will be led by artist Matilda Ellis alongside a small team of experienced assistants. Family, friends and support staff are all welcome and recommended, particularly if one-to-one support is required.
There will be a breakout space available, with a selection of sensory aids.
