Overview
About this course
In our increasingly digital-focused world, it may seem that traditional drawing has become obsolete. Thankfully this isn't the case!
This special Simply Drawing summer course at the Arts University Bournemouth has been specially designed to focus on observational hand drawing; slowing down the process of learning to draw what you see by simply using pencil, pen, and charcoal.
You'll have the chance to develop your observational drawing skills and gain confidence in your abilities. You'll also be encouraged to view drawing as a means of relaxation and taking personal time out.
