Discover Drawing & Painting
Drawing and painting are among humanity’s oldest languages. People were painting animals on cave walls tens of thousands of years ago, long before writing existed, and every great artist since has started the same way: by learning to look carefully and to put what they see on paper.
Drawing trains your eye for line, proportion, perspective, light and shadow. Painting adds colour: mixing, harmony and the character of each medium, from delicate watercolour to rich, layered acrylic and oil. Both are skills anyone can learn step by step, at any age.
- Foundations: line, shape, proportion and perspective
- Light: values, shading and form
- Colour: mixing, harmony and the colour wheel
- Media: pencil, charcoal, ink, watercolour, acrylic, oil
