Michelangelo, Leonardo, Raphael
Supported by Bloomberg Philanthropies' Digital Accelerator Programme
Start your Saturday sketching from the artist Raphael, a titan of the Italian Renaissance.
During this online class, you will learn how to develop your drawing skills by drawing the work of prominent artists of the Renaissance. Using paintings featured in our exhibition Michelangelo, Leonardo, Raphael you will use Raphael's work to create sketches. Artist, Ann Witheridge will lead you in a series of exercises based on paintings such as Raphael's Virgin and Child with the Infant St John the Baptist. The class will help to build and refine your observation and drawing skills.
Our Saturday Sketch Clubs are a series of monthly online art classes led by artists. Whether you're a beginner or a practising artist, these live-streamed classes are designed for everyone. Sessions take place online via a live webinar. Attendees will be sent a link to join the webinar in the days leading to the event.
Share your work with the Sketch Club community by posting your drawings to Twitter or Instagram using the hashtag #RASketchClub or join our Facebook group group to connect with other participants.
