I've now attended over 6 Drawing Workshops at CADA, and I absolutely love it. The atmosphere and the teaching approach are very important to me and Lawrence manages this just perfectly. I can see how my drawing skills are improving with constant practice and guidance.
 
I also like the flexibility of picking which classes to attend. Absolutely great experience, I'm so looking forward to Wednesday evenings.

Lawrence's teaching method, focusing on capturing the model's flow with innovative "gooey boxes" techniques, has made my drawing process more intuitive. Observing his techniques has significantly enhanced my art, and I'm eager to learn more.
