Because we are all individuals, we make marks from who, when and where we are. DRAWINGHAM can help people draw what they see as accurately as possible in a particular place and at a set time.

The idea can also be taken a whole lot further, connecting the act of drawing with how we understand space, time and ourselves.

For example, this drawing was produced by a participant with little previous experience of drawing during the Evening Academy. This was organised by DRAWINGHAM for IKON, Birmingham in relation to their exhibition of figure drawings by John Flaxman.

DRAWINGHAM offers guided drawing sessions that explore:

•how we experience ourselves and the world around us

•interaction between drawing, seeing, understanding  

•drawing with the sense of touch in various ways 

•reflecting on drawing through the eyes of old masters

•mapping our surroundings as we experience them
