Beginners Drawing and Urban Sketching Class: Sunday Sketch Club

Fun and friendly casual urban sketching group! Join us and sketch the day away!



2 hours Class size 1 to 10 guests       $35

Sunday Sketch Club is a monthly group drawing session built to help us all sketch more and scroll less! One Sunday of each month, we meet at our studio (or at a special location), learn about a new sketching style, technique, or art supply, and then head out and sketch the streets of Melbourne!
Why sketching?
Sketching is a wonderful way to build a regular creative practice----it’s all about letting loose, having fun, and finding wonder in the world around us. There is absolutely no right or wrong in sketching, and that’s why no artistic experience is required!
What's included?
Each session includes a new art supply (to keep!) and a demonstration featuring the art supply and some sketching tips and tricks, followed by plenty of time to sketch at your own pace. You’ll build core drawing skills like observation, line, shape, and shadow, while also developing confidence and consistency in your practice.
Sunday Sketch Club is suitable for all levels, from complete beginners to experienced artists who want a relaxed, social way to keep drawing. Many people come on their own and quickly feel part of the group.
More than a class, SSC is a creative community. Think good chats, encouragement, and that lovely feeling of spending a Sunday morning doing something just for you.
What you can expect:
  • A relaxed, supportive drawing session
  • Demonstration and tips and tricks to help you make the art you want sooner!
  • Simple prompts to help you get started
  • Time to sketch freely at your own pace
  • A friendly, welcoming creative community
Who it’s perfect for:
  • Beginners who want a low-pressure introduction to drawing
  • Artists wanting to build a regular sketching habit
  • Anyone craving a calm, creative way to spend their Sunday
Don't have a sketchbook? No worries! We have sketchbooks available for you to use during the session (and to keep afterwards!). Please select the "Sketchbook to Keep" add-on when checking out.
We hope you can join and sketch with us!

FAQ

How far will we be walking?
Each session is different but all of the sessions are designed with only a small amount of walking. Generally we walk for up to around 5 minutes, break and sketch, and then move to another location.
What if the weather is bad on the day?
Don't worry! I always have a back up plan for things we can do in the Studio or at alternative venues. I'll be in touch to let you know the plan :)
Do I need to have any drawing experience?
Absolutely not!

Welcome to my Studio! I’m Rachel — a self-taught artist, educator, and lover of colour, light and storytelling. My studio is a warm, inviting space in Camberwell where we slow down, play with paint, and make art that feels good.
Whether you’re a complete beginner or returning to art after a break, my classes are all about confidence, curiosity and joyful creative expression. We focus on hands-on learning, gentle guidance, playful prompts and a friendly, no-pressure vibe — because art should be fun and supportive, not intimidating.
From beginner oil painting courses to theme-based workshops and monthly sketch groups, each session is designed to help you see better, paint with more confidence, and enjoy the experience of making with others. You’ll leave with new skills, new art, and often new friends too.
All materials are provided, and every class is taught in a cosy, welcoming setting where there’s no “right way” to create — just your way. ️
