Figuration

Life Drawing Sessions

Figuration: Life Drawing Sessions is a drop-in artistic experience that has been cultivating creativity, connection, and community for over seven years. Rooted in the timeless practice of life drawing, this ongoing series provides a welcoming space for artists of all levels to come together, explore, and grow.

Each session centres on the presence of a life model, inviting participants to experiment with different techniques, materials, and approaches to capturing the human form. The evening unfolds in timed increments—beginning with quick gestures that build energy and intuition, and gradually progressing to longer poses that allow for deeper observation and refinement.

What truly sets The Figuration Experience apart is its atmosphere—part creative studio, part social gathering, and part artistic movement. Beyond the sketchbooks and easels, it’s a space for genuine engagement and exchange, where conversations about art, process, and body positivity flow freely. The experience fosters an environment of openness and collaboration, where vulnerability and creativity intersect.

Adding another layer to the ambiance, live music accompanies the sessions, enhancing the energy in the room and inspiring rhythm, emotion, and spontaneity in each artist’s mark-making. The result is an immersive, multisensory experience that celebrates the beauty of the human form, the power of community, and the evolving dialogue between art and self-expression.

It’s more than just a drawing session—it’s a movement that continues to grow, inspire, and connect artists through shared creative exploration.
