WHAT'S THIS ALL ABOUT?
Instead of human models, our subjects are real animals. The drawing classes are open to all, from beginners to advanced. The aim is to inspire a sense of appreciation and understanding for animals through creativity, and to raise awareness of conservation issues around the globe.
WHAT WILL I BE LEARNING?
Wild Life Drawing is run by Jennie Webber, London-based illustrator and animal lover, who will be on hand to help and advise on all the artistic elements of the class. This class is informal and relaxed, and open to all levels of skill. So if you haven’t taken the time to put pencil to paper since school, this is one for you. If you’re a seasoned pro, this is a unique opportunity to sketch wild animals in real life. Each class focuses on a different species. In the past, students have drawn donkeys, tortoises, meerkats, parrots, owls and even lizards. As well as drawing the animals, you will hear all about their habitats, behaviour, and any conservation issues affecting that species.
THE ALL IMPORTANT DETAILS
Classes are around 2 hours in length, usually from 7-9pm on weeknights (subject to change), with weekend classes also available. There will usually be a minimum of 3 Wild Life Drawing classes per month to choose from. This is an adult class, open to those over 18. Wild Life Drawing takes place all over London. All the materials you need will be provided, (although if you do have your own painting set, or a favourite block of charcoal, please feel free to bring it along).

My sister and I had a fantastic time at the drawing class, the miniature donkeys were called Gilbert and Sullivan and they were adorable. They munched on hay all the time and were so good. Jenny was lovely and very encouraging and we had a great time. We will definately be doing this again. I have attached my drawing of them (it won't be sold at Sotherby's any time soon!!!) but is a lovely reminder of a special day.
We had a wonderful time! I bought this for my mum for Mother's Day, and the gift was very well received in it's beautiful packaging! We booked ourselves to take part in the 'Exotic Birds' class, on a Saturday afternoon at a lovely venue in East London. Set on the top floor, we had the city skyline as the backdrop for our 'Wildlife Drawing Class', and wow, how very wild an afternoon it was! There certainly were some entertaining antics from our exotic subject matter, who were expertly looked afte...
What a great Mother's Day gift - sketching and painting with live, flying about, posing and very amusing parrots. What beautiful colours! Really enjoyable couple of hours.
An interesting, informative and enjoyable evening sketching jellyfish! What amazing creatures. Lovely atmosphere at the London Aquarium reproducing them onto paper. Great evening.
I very much enjoyed the day spend with Jennie, she was helpful and encouraging, and the Garden Museum was an inspiring place to work in.
The wildlife class was very good, interesting and I learnt something new.. There were a variety of animals and amphibians to draw. We were given a short talk about each of the animals and their characters. I thoroughly enjoyed myself. This is my second experience of wild life drawing. Each one has been different. I would highly recommend these classes. Also thank you to Indytute for being so helpful in allowing me to swap my voucher experience for this one. Claire was very helpful.
