    Description

    Online Life Drawing Sessions with Alex Roberts on 5 February & 19 February 2022
    Two further public engagement activities to provide virtual life drawing workshops as part of the Trinity Buoy Wharf Drawing Prize 2021’s events programming. The former, November 2021.

    Continuing to work with Drawing Projects UK, Alex Roberts and DPUK extended the development of their online life drawing format. During Lockdown, creating a virtual life drawing studio significantly proved to be an effective and supplementary means to ‘in real life’ drawing sessions.

    The drawing sessions focused upon observations and connectivity. Synthesising and giving accessibility to a tutor guided drawing session to the wider public. Discovering and reaffirming the role that virtual pedagogy can impart knowledge share, create drawing communities and partnerships. Resulting an accessible and supported platform to collaboratively draw, bolstering future interest.
