Life Drawing at Oxford Gallery

Areta Wilkinson from Oxford Gallery toi o Waimakariri

We are taking bookings for our next LIFE DRAWING course this May-June 2022. Begins Thursday 19 May for five consecutive weeks.

Oxford Gallery will host our popular Life Drawing sessions again this May and June. Spaces are limited so early booking is advised!

Life Drawing is the practice of drawing the human figure from a live model and teaches observation and drawing skills. This course is open to beginners and experienced artists. You don’t have to know ‘how to draw’ to draw the human figure. You will not be judged on your drawing here; even the most experienced artists are learning, so if you feel like challenging yourself creatively and learning a new skill, you are welcome!

Artist and tutor Casey will suggest exercises to try or you can be self-directed.

✅ Drawing boards, easels, newsprint and sugar paper provided.

✅ Bring your own drawing materials (for beginners we recommend a soft pencil – 2B or softer – or charcoal). Experienced artists may bring their preferred materials.

✅ Tea and coffee provided

✅ Thursdays 7-9pm (please arrive at 6.45 for prompt 7pm start)

📆 19, 26 May and 2,9,16 June

🎫 Ticket options:

$120 for a block of 5 sessions

OR

Buy individual sessions at $30 per session.

Buy Tickets: www.eventfinda.co.nz...

Ticketing will close when the course is fully booked.

Turn downsizing stress into strength

Charles Upham Retirement Village

Downsizing can open the door to a new stage of your life that is rich in opportunity. However, it can be a daunting prospect. If you are embarking on a new chapter of life, the thought of shedding familiar possessions can feel even more stressful. This can be true even if the life changes are a good thing, such as a move to somewhere you will love to live.

Once you understand why you have this feeling, you can reframe it as creating a new environment that will support your present life while reminding you of your best experiences.
