Still Life Drawing Workshop with Zarahn Southon
Unlock the Art of Observation and Expression
Join esteemed artist and tutor Zarahn Southon for a focused Still Life Drawing Workshop designed to deepen your observational skills, refine your technique, and awaken your creative expression. Whether you’re a beginner eager to develop foundational drawing skills or a more experienced artist looking to sharpen your eye, this workshop offers a rich and rewarding experience.
Guided by Zarahn Southon – an accomplished realist painter known for his sensitive approach to form and tone – you’ll learn how to bring everyday objects to life on the page. Through a series of structured exercises, you’ll explore composition, proportion, perspective, contour, shading, and the subtleties of light and shadow. The workshop emphasizes classical drawing techniques but encourages individual expression and interpretation within the still life tradition.
Over the course of the Still Life Drawing workshop, participants will work from thoughtfully arranged still life setups featuring a variety of textures and shapes. These could be glass and ceramics to fabric and organic forms. Zarahn’s instruction and demonstrations will support your development and improvement.
This is a hands-on workshop and ideal for artists, art students, or anyone with a passion for drawing and visual storytelling. No prior experience is necessary, you just need to observe closely and experiment boldly.
By the end of the workshop, you’ll walk away with finished drawings, an raised understanding of visual form, and practical tools you can apply to your ongoing art practice.
Reserve your place today and discover the power of drawing from life with one of New Zealand’s leading contemporary realist artists.
