Every other Monday evening, Marike will teach you everything about setting up and developing a portrait over the course of 13 lessons. We will cover proportions, anatomy, line and plane, and the effect of light and shadow. By learning to observe consciously and gaining a grasp of what you are actually seeing, you will learn how to truly draw.
To learn to draw well, you will work with charcoal. It is the perfect medium for creating realistic and lively drawings. After a few lessons, you will begin drawing from a live model, as this is how you learn to capture a living person on paper.
A challenging and educational workshop for beginners. If you already have experience, you are also welcome, as you can learn something new from every artist/instructor. Marike will guide you at your own level.
This course has a structured format with a clear beginning and end; joining mid-course is not possible.
For beginners and those with experience who are curious about different approaches to portrait drawing.
Every other Monday evening, excluding school holidays
From 7:30 PM to 9:30 PM

What if I miss a class?
If you cancel in time, you can make up for missed classes. By arrangement, you can make up a maximum of three classes during one of the other course sessions within the current season. Please don't leave this until the final weeks.
I would love to be a model for portrait or figure drawing sometime; is that possible?
Absolutely. Just send a message to bij@atelierdeheerlijkheid.nl.
Is it easy to park at Atelier De Heerlijkheid?
Certainly, there is plenty of parking available at Driekoningenplein and next to the cemetery. We do ask that you park your car in a designated space, angled along the cemetery wall, to ensure there is room for other vehicles. Additionally, please make sure that wherever you park, wide agricultural vehicles can always pass through easily.
If you live nearby, it’s even better to come by bike. You can park it safely in our yard.
