Join Alys Scott Hawkins at these friendly and relaxed portrait sessions. The morning session (10.30am - 1pm) is for those wishing to develop confidence with drawing from observation, or looking for new approaches, and will involve a series of quick and playful exercises drawing a clothed model.

The afternoon session (2pm - 4.30pm) continues a relaxed and experimental approach and focuses on portraits and self-portraits, responding to music and drawing with colour.

You are welcome to book for either morning, afternoon or both!

Free to all, these workshops are supported as part of the Creative Connections project and accompany the Creative Connections portraiture exhibition in collaboration with the National Portrait Gallery. Due to high demand for these sessions, however, we ask that you pay a £10 fully refundable deposit per ticket. This deposit will be refunded in full upon attendance. If you can't attend and can give us five working days notice we will also be able to refund your deposit. Please email art.gallery@southampton.gov.uk with any queries.
