I teach life drawing at various locations in Basel on the basis of weekly courses or workshops. Beside that i regularly organize the open studio for life drawing.
Lifedrawing as a genre is almost as old as the act of painting itself. At aktzeichnen@basel artists of all skill levels are welcome to draw a live model in a variety of poses. This format offers you an opportunity to have a go at drawing the naked human form for the first time or to brush up on previously acquired skills in an untutored environment.
In addition aktzeichnen@basel is available as a inexpensive practice forum for those looking to develop their hand/eye co-ordination. Drawing in the company of other artists is a great way to power down and get creative with your hands.
We're happy to answer any questions you may have, no matter whether you're just starting out or want to build on your existing skills. You will be amazed how quickly your dexterity will improve.
