This is a fun activity in Trafalgar Square, London

Join us Thursday nights in the heart of London for relaxed and friendly life drawing with Soho Life Drawing! Featuring a different model each week, Soho Life Drawing offers a great space to relax and unwind in the historic Westminster Quaker Meeting House just a stone's throw from Trafalgar Square. The first hour is guided, and all materials are provided on site--so no worries if you've never tried life drawing before--you'll be in great hands!

Our members come from literally all walks of life and from all skill levels, so don't be afraid to drop by if you're an absolute beginner. At this life drawing class, you are guaranteed to find a non-judgmental place to explore your artistic abilities. Just drop-in!

We begin each session with short, gestural poses and move up to longer sustained poses. Our models are personally vetted professionals, and some of the best in the business. Our guided class is a great way to get into the swing of things and learn how artists use short and long poses in life drawing to build up to a finished work. The following class allows members to continue to expand their drawing abilities with longer poses, and for beginners to get more one-on-one attention (should they wish) and more time for input at the end of the class.

All supplies (A3 clipboards, graded pencils, sharpeners, rubbers, pastels, graphite etc...) are free to borrow with the exception of paper, which is 15p/sheet (A3). A4 notebooks are available for £3.50 and A3 notebooks for £4.50.

We also provide tea and biscuits during the break to keep your energy up! We break for 10 minutes after the first hour.

Amazing mix of v serious and not so serious artists - with surprisingly helpful tips from Anna although she is mostly quiet and just lets everyone get on with drawing. Rapid sequence of poses at the start very helpful for developing quick drawing skills - but not easy! HIghly recommend

We received verbal feedback, advised on how to capture the former shape of the model, with simple shapes and lines - c, s, v, to measure the proportion of the body parts, and to capture the light and shading. The timing to complete the drawings are based on 2min, 5min, 10min so on over the course of two hours, to capture details we miss earlier on. Happy to work in a peaceful class, no music needed. Able to view others work which was a pleasure too. I drew multiple images on the same paper and see how the poses developed on the page.
