Based on the incredible collection of Rembrandt’s portraits that are held in the National Gallery, this class will act as an introduction to one of the most emotive portrait painters of all time, his life, works, virtuosity as a draughtsman and his experimental process as an artist that was far before his time.

The morning’s class will be made up of a short introduction to the Rembrandt’s epoch, life and work, followed by a series of tailored drawing exercises led by Luisa, designed to help you understand the artists techniques in a new way. The afternoon will be made up of longer exercises building to a long drawing with the aim of combining all that you have learned throughout the day into a final work.
