Part 4 - Hands - Through this session we will study the hands, both the models and your own, creating a range of poses with props. During this workshop you will draw from a live model focusing on studies of the hands. This session is designed to help build your confidence and practice of drawing from life, some props will be used to provide a range of poses and expressions that you would come across in everyday situations. These sessions will be guided and Liddy and Nicole will be on hand to offer as much or as little guidance as you need. The basics of proportions of human hands will be covered during the workshop and all materials will be provided (but please feel free to bring along any of your own materials too). We will also be using a range of drawing materials, during the workshop, giving you chance to potentially try a media that you may not have drawn with before. Just to clarify that we will be studying a clothed model and the sessions aren't intended to be pure life drawing, rather capturing everyday moments. We provide tea, coffee and sweet treats, but also please feel free to being along your own refreshments if you like Liddy is the creative force and main tutor with Something Less Boring.

Liddy taught art for over 10 years at secondary school level before leaving to found Something Less Boring in 2017 with the aim of bringing art and sport to all ages regardless of ability in a fun, creative and inclusive way.

My passion has always been for art and I have always enjoyed being creative. Some of my fondest childhood memories are those spent with my siblings creating stories, drawing illustrations and making books. I guess it was from here that a profound love for all things creative was born and nurtured."
