What happens when you stop worrying about making a “perfect” drawing and simply keep your line moving?
In this beginner-friendly online drawing session, you'll explore Picasso's expressive continuous-line drawings and experiment with seeing and drawing in a completely different way.
You'll start with simple line exercises before moving on to objects and more expressive drawings. Along the way, you'll discover how much you can communicate with just one unbroken line.
No previous drawing experience is needed. Just bring some paper, a pen or pencil, and a willingness to experiment. :)
*What you'll do*
  • Explore Picasso's continuous-line drawings and what makes them so expressive
  • Warm up with playful exercises to loosen up your hand and your eye
  • Draw simple objects without lifting your pen from the page
  • Quiet perfectionist tendencies and embrace artistic spontaneity
*What you'll learn*
You'll explore how to:
  • Simplify what you see
  • Observe while drawing rather than focusing on making a “perfect” picture
  • Use line to suggest shape, movement, and character
  • Let go of perfection and enjoy the process of drawing
  • Develop your own expressive way of seeing and drawing
*Who is this class for?*
This class is suitable for complete beginners as well as experienced artists who would like to experiment with a different approach to drawing. It's particularly suited to anyone who thinks: “I'm not very good at drawing.” You might be surprised by what one line can do.
*What you'll need*
Please have the following ready before the class:
  • Several sheets of plain paper
  • A pen or pencil
  • A few coloured pencils or markers, if you'd like to experiment with colour
  • A comfortable space where you can draw
*Class format*
This is a live, interactive online class with plenty of time to draw and experiment. I'll demonstrate each activity, explain the idea behind it, and give you time to try it yourself.
You don't need to produce a “good” drawing. The aim is to look, experiment, and discover.

Hello and welcome,
My name is Sorour. I am a multidisciplinary artist, bookbinder, educator, and the artist behind Gallery 19. I believe art education is about more than mastering a technique.
My classes combine practical skills and craftsmanship with experimentation, play and creative exploration. I want students to learn something tangible while also having space to be curious, express themselves and enjoy the process of making.
With formal training in visual art and a background in mental health studies, I've developed a particular interest in the ways creativity can support self-expression, curiosity and wellbeing.
