Draw London

Indulge your artistic streak with this one-day, outdoor drawing workshop in Central London.

Our Draw London course is a full-day urban sketching experience, open to all levels – from complete beginners to those with more artistic experience. This course is the perfect way to immerse yourself in drawing while discovering the city from a fresh perspective. Bring your own sketchbook and pencils or use the materials provided as you learn from our expert tutor. 

Throughout the day, you’ll visit a variety of inspiring locations across London. Each setting offers unique subjects to draw – from striking architecture and public spaces to lively cafés, historic details, and everyday street scenes.

The day begins with simple warm-up exercises designed to loosen up your hand and eye coordination. As the course progresses, you'll explore key drawing techniques including perspective, composition, tone, and capturing movement.

Our friendly and experienced tutors will offer one-to-one support and group guidance, helping you to develop your confidence, improve your observational skills, and find your personal drawing style.

There will be regular breaks – including time for lunch and short coffee stops – which also provide opportunities to sketch people in more relaxed, social environments.

By the end of the day, you’ll have filled pages of your sketchbook with a rich variety of studies and scenes – a creative record of your journey through London, and inspiration to continue your drawing practice long after the course ends.
