All about drawing classes

Where can I learn to draw?

Drawing is one of the oldest art forms in history and has not yet gone out of fashion, in fact, it has evolved. Learning to draw is a way for both children and adults to express themselves and expand their minds. Through drawing classes you will be able to capture on paper all the imagination you have in a thousand different ways. 

Drawing courses for beginners, drawing workshops for a specific style or drawing classes for higher levels are very abundant in UK. Wherever you are, you will easily find an expert drawing tutor who either offers his or her courses privately or is attached to a drawing and painting tuition centre. Do you know which is the best way to learn drawing? We tell you all the advantages and disadvantages of each type of class: 

• Private tuition in drawing and painting. There are many illustrators, cartoonists and fine art tutors who offer private tuition in drawing in their spare time. Many of them are active and love to teach their passion. So if you are looking for a drawing tutor at home who is methodical and wise at what they do, private tuition at home is for you. Moreover, with a private drawing tutor, you will be able to practice all the drawing styles you want, as you will be able to choose according to your needs.
• Drawing schools. The growing demand for drawing courses has led to a large number of drawing schools. Most of them are small workshops with few students, which makes learning easier because the drawing tutor can be there for you more. However, to start a pencil drawing course at a school, you will need to adjust your timetable to that of your school and learn from the courses they offer. 
• Online drawing courses. After the pandemic, tutors have discovered the modality of online tuition. With them, you can take classes from the comfort of your own home, not be subject to inflexible timetables and be in direct contact with your online drawing tutor for whatever you want.
