Yes, in this class you really can … and your tutor, Cathy Burnett will give you the confidence to do so.

Come and give yourself a couple of hours off and immerse yourself in drawing, using a choice of materials, and we’ll put the kettle on.

This class is a natural progression for those who have attended Drawing for the Terrified, the previous You Can Draw!, or even if you are a total beginner.

Experience is not necessary because support and guidance will be on hand. If you do have creative experience, you will have the opportunity to apply and develop your media handling, colour selection and compositional skills.

At Yardley Arts, we offer the space to create in a wonderfully light and relaxed environment, as well as cheerful encouragement.

You will have a choice of a table or an easel (upright or table) to work from – or the floor if you prefer!
