Hello everyone,
Tomorrow

1pm, at Union Chapel in Islington, I'll be running a willow weaving
workshop for Open Wednesday's Culture Cafe. Come and join us making
weird and wonderful shapes and surprises, for display at the Carols by
Candlelight concert in December.

On
Thursday evening, from 7.30 - 9.30pm, I'll be running an art workshop
exploring abstraction at one of the Wave Cafe's fun, exciting, inclusive
and unique creative sessions in North London.

On Monday, September 17th, it's the first in a series of 6 freestyle life drawing sessions at Little Nan's in Deptford. Little Nan's is a
wonderful bar, where they serve cocktails in teapots and an
array of other fine beverages. The sessions are free, easy and relaxed,
with poses set to music and the bar open throughout.
It's all happening
in the luxurious tropical paradise that is Granddad's Shed, Arches 13-15,
Deptford Market Yard, SE8 4BX. The cost is £10 per session, first come
first served, so arrive early for a prompt start!
And
for a very different kind of Life Drawing experience, come to Union
Chapel on September 23rd, where I'll be delivering Five Alive, Drawing
Stories. A life drawing class with a difference! Join me and
storyteller Giles Abbot for a unique three hour life
drawing class upstairs in the Bar at Union Chapel.
With three models acting to the dramatic unfolding of a fantastic, eerie and sensational story. With pauses to music throughout, for you to draw different poses, working up to a long pose.

This
promises to be a unique, theatrical and very dramatic life drawing
session. Giles Abbott – UK’s only
blind professional storyteller, is well known for his strong voice,
language and stage presence. Giles is also a voice teacher and poet.
I'll be giving hints and tips on how to capture movement, emotion and drama in a figure drawing.
We will have 3 models acting to Giles’s story, and holding the poses to music for you to draw at intervals throughout the night, with regular breaks for refreshment from the bar.
With a series of short poses working up to a long pose, free art materials and drinks available for purchase from the bar throughout the night, this is sure to be a very interesting, engaging and magical evening.
Bring your own drawing board or use our tables. All levels of ability are welcome, so if you’re a fresh young amateur or a life drawing regular master, come along to drink and draw!
Suitable for over 18s only.
