Description

Ever wanted to learn how artists turn simple lines into beautiful, realistic drawings?

Join me on June 28th at The Press Book House for a fun, immersive afternoon where you'll learn the foundations of drawing and a stunning barn owl in charcoal.

We'll start by unlocking the skills behind great drawing; exploring perspective, three dimensional forms, light, shadow, texture, and the techniques artists use to bring their work to life. I'll guide you with my 3 step method through drawing a magnificent barn owl in charcoal, showing you exactly how to create depth, detail, and those gorgeous soft feathers.

No experience? No problem. This class is designed for beginners, it's approachable, and packed with those magic "I can't believe I drew that!" moments.

For just $30, you'll get:

✨ Expert tuition from Brittany of Britt's Studio
✨ All art materials provided
✨ Charcuterie and refreshments
✨ A beautiful finished artwork to take home
✨ An afternoon of creativity in one of Newcastle's iconic venues

Since launching in 2024, Britt's Studio has welcomed more than 700 students across Newcastle and Sydney, helping people discover that drawing isn't a talent you're born with, it's a skill anyone can learn.

Whether you're looking to try something new, meet like minded people, develop a genuine artistic skill, or simply spend an afternoon doing something wonderfully different, this workshop is for you.

Seats are limited and workshops regularly sell out, so don't leave it too long to grab your spot.

Come for the fundamentals or the barn owl, stay for the creativity, and leave with skills you'll use long after the charcoal dust settles.

How to book your workshop
