Learn how to draw landscapes in this online art class with artist Adebanji Alade.
Start your Saturday creatively with this online art class. Drawing on examples from art history, artist Adebanji will teach you how to capture different types of light, times of day and weather. He'll also share his tips and tricks for working in pencil to render the world around you.
You'll draw landscapes from your window or from an image of a favourite place you've visited. Learn how to illustrate natural and man-made elements that you encounter every day and see them in a new light through closer looking.
Our Saturday Sketch Clubs are a series of online monthly art classes led by artists. Whether you're a beginner or a practising artist, these live-streamed classes are designed for everyone. Sessions take place online via a live webinar. Attendees will be sent a link to join the webinar closer to the time.
Share your work with the online Sketch Club community by posting your drawings to Twitter or Instagram using the hashtag #RASketchClub.
