Drawing with Colour

Drawing with Colour

Discover the power of colour as you explore blending, layering, and composition to create expressive, vibrant drawings.

Our immersive Drawing with Colour Classes are designed to enhance your drawing skills through the transformative power of colour. You will dive into a deep exploration of colour theory, shading, and light effects, teaching you to use colour to create narrative, mood, and vibrant realism. 

You will learn to blend, layer, and create texture using coloured pencils, pastels, markers, and mixed media. Each session focuses on different aspects of colour drawing, starting with foundational materials and techniques and progressing to their application in expressive, realistic compositions. 

You will have guided exercises that will teach you to create depth and form through shading, capture textures with various mark-making techniques, and use colour to express powerful emotions. By the end of the drawing course, you will have a comprehensive portfolio and a personal project that demonstrates your newfound confidence with colour.

No Venue

All City Academy tutors are experienced professionals from theatre, film/TV and performance industries. So whilst they're training you they may also be rehearsing for a West End show or working on a movie. We like that and we do believe it makes a difference in class.
