Come Draw With Me at Leighton House

Join four acclaimed artists for two hours of drawing in the spectacular surroundings of Leighton House, the best example of a late 19th century UK artist's home open to the public.

Eileen Cooper RA, printmaker and painter, is concerned with contemporary interpretations of the figure and imaginative narratives, and is the first woman to be elected Keeper of the Royal Academy Schools. Eileen will lead a life class in Lord Leighton’s perfectly preserved studio.

Claude Heath, known for innovative investigations in drawing, will ask his group to respond to Leighton’s winter studio with large experimental drawings that create trompe l’oeil ‘openings’ in its walls.

Andrew Logan, famed as a phenomenal figure in London life as well as a painter, performer and sculptor, will encourage participants to create vibrant patterns and images to reflect Leighton’s stunning Arab Hall.

Glenn Sujo is an artist, teacher, writer and curator who focuses on the expressive and analytical tools of drawing. His workshop will take ‘a line for a dance’, responding to the vitality of the human form in motion.
