Get matched →Gain confidence in drawing the figure with these tutored sessions on some basic principles of life drawing. Artist Justine Moss will offer guidance and advice to help you learn skills in mark-making, portraying movement, and capturing expression. Suitable for all abilities.
During a life drawing session, there will be a nude model surrounded by artists. This is why the classes are limited to ages 18+. The model will be posing for different durations. The poses can vary from 2 minutes to 10 minutes and an hour. You will be drawing the human form in various poses and levels of detail from highly detailed and anatomically proportional drawings to loose and expressive sketches. Basic materials provided.
Dr Justine Moss works in the expanded field of drawing. Many of her responses and interventions only exist momentarily, and it is this fleeting quality she aims to convey in her more permanent works. She completed a practice-based PhD, drawing garments being discarded by the female wearer in 1950s-60s narrative film, with a fully funded studentship at Arts University Bournemouth (2025). She has recently exhibited at Trinity Buoy Wharf Drawing Prize, London (2024), The Bank Remnants (2026), and Norwich Castle In Proximity (2026). She is an active member of the AUB drawing research group Transformative Matter: Material Trace, who regularly meet to make site-specific responsive drawings across the UK at locations including the Pitt Rivers Museum and Kew Gardens. This spring she undertook a residency exploring bird sounds using graphite at the Viarco pencil factory in Portugal and is a member of Asylum Studios. She teaches on the drawing degree at the Open University and runs a longstanding life drawing group in Woodbridge, as well as running workshops in life drawing and watercolour at Firstsite.
