A 5-hour workshop drawing or painting the face of a live sitter. All painting and drawing media welcome, but it's best to use a medium you are familiar with. The tutor will give guidance, and an initial demonstration especially for those who are new to portraiture.
If you are new to portraiture, please bring the following to the workshop:
HB or B Pencils
Rubber
A3 or A2 paper
Charcoal
Otherwise bring whatever materials you are used to using. If you intend to paint in oils, bring low-odour thinners, NOT turps or white spirit.
Please bring everything on the materials list, including masking tape or bull-dog clips, a pencil-sharpener and an eraser.
Please get in touch if you have any additional needs that would be helpful for us to know about, and we will try to arrange adjustments for you to better access the workshop. If you need to bring a carer with you, please let us know in advance so we can ensure there is enough space. Email us on admin@bristolfolkhouse.co.uk or call us on 01179262987.
Please note: All 10, and 12 week courses have a half term break in the middle. For term dates please visit our Contact us page. We are not open on bank holiday Mondays and any class that falls on these days will be made up at the end of term.

Latecomer
If a course has already started, please call the office as it may be possible to join after the start date. This may only be possible if the course is not already full, if it is not disruptive for the other students and you are aware that you have missed a percentage of the course and the tutor will not have time to catch you up. This will be at discretion of the Folk House. We run our courses termly, so it might be best to start at the beginning of the course.
