7 Steps to Drawing (Adults) is an online drawing course which aims to give adults the opportunity to practise and develop their drawing skills and approach in a supported and guided  environment.

Who is 7 Steps to Drawing aimed at? This online course is aimed at:

• adults who have little or no experience of drawing, who would like to be introduced to basic drawing skills and ideas;
• adults who would like to revisit drawing;
• adults who would benefit from feedback about their work;
• adults who find it hard to attend physical drawing lessons;
• adults who teach drawing: the exercises are transferable and can be adapted to a wide audience. By trying the exercises yourself you will develop a greater understanding of the processes involved;
• teenagers (aged 14 plus) who are studying and would like to support their school work.

How does it Work?

The course consist of 7 drawing exercises, plus extension activities. Each activity is delivered to you online via a combination of text, video and image. You will log in with your username and password, enjoy the module and then try the drawing activity in your own time. If you wish you can then photograph your work and upload it to the tutorial pages, and benefit from feedback from peers and AccessArt. The upload facility is easy (you just need to be able to photograph or scan your work, and save it to your computer as a jpg). Peer to peer comments are encouraged, and AccessArt artists/tutors will also support you in constructive ways. We would encourage you comment on your own experience of the drawing exercise when you upload your images and to comment on other students work if you feel inclined. This is one of the most valuable parts of the course. The drawing exercises remain online so that you can access them at any time.

*You can upload up to two images for each module. AccessArt tutors will give brief but constructive feedback upon one image per module, per person.

**We may share uploaded images and include your first name on our social media sites.  Please let us know if you would prefer not to have your work posted on Pinterest, Face Book etc.

Preparation As the learning is delivered remotely you will of course be responsible for drawing materials. These materials will not be overly complicated, just basic drawing materials (paper, pencils, charcoal etc), and are easily obtainable online or in art shops. Subject matter items will be flexible and consist of everyday objects which you should easily be able to find around the home.

How much time will I need to commit? It’s largely up to you, and obviously the more you put in, the more you will get out. We suggest you try to spend between 30 minutes and 2 hours on each of the 7 assignments – though we know many people will want to spend longer on the exercises and to revisit them over time.
