Life Drawing Club

Welcome to CCB Life Drawing Club and Classes where we foster creativity and camaraderie following the Cornish Craft Barn motto, Relax ~ Refuel ~ Unwind. As well as learning to draw, this life drawing class is an ideal opportunity to meet other people and unwind at the end of the day.

Here’s what you can expect from our Life Drawing Club classes :

Diverse Models: We have a diverse roster of models which provide experience and opportunity for you to explore various body types, poses, and perspectives. During these life drawing experiences, models will perform quick and varied poses, from 2 to 20 minutes. This way, you will learn how to draw the human figure in multiple views.

Open to All Skill Levels: Our classes are open to artists of all skill levels, from beginners looking to start their artistic journey to advanced artists seeking to refine their skills. Each drawing session is untutored but follows a peer-to-peer learning style, in which we all learn from the artwork produced in the class. Complete beginners are welcome to take part in this class and will be given plenty of support to get the best out of the session.

Refreshments: The Barn café provides food and drink for each session’s mini breaks and social intervals included in the class cost!

Dedicated WhatsApp Group: We have a CCB Life Drawing WhatsApp group for sharing resources and life drawing social chat to complement the sessions and learn from each other. This is in addition to the CCB Academy where you will be provided a login to access resources* the CCB has created to help you get the most out of Life Drawing!

Materials. Yours & Ours: We supply everything you need to start life drawing but ask that you bring something to draw on. We can provide paper and sketchbooks for purchase and will have some paper to hand if you forget your pad.  If you have any favourite drawing tools or materials, please use them and bring them with you.

Multiple Session Discount: Attending multiple sessions will allow you to experiment with different materials and see others’ artwork to get inspired, make new friends, and have it become a welcome part of your social calendar. Purchase a block of four sessions at a discounted per-session cost of £12 instead of £15 for £48. These four sessions can be used non-consecutively all we ask is that you book in advance on the dates you can attend and use your four-session credits.
