Life Drawing for adults at LAS!

Jun 9, 2025
1 min read


Below is an A2 life drawing created by Greg Devenny-Mackay as a demonstration for our adult students during a life drawing session. This quick study was completed directly from a live model, without the use of grids, graphing, or any numeric fill-in techniques.

At Lavender Art Studios, we teach and uphold a freehand drawing style, focusing on classical and contemporary fine art techniques. Our approach emphasizes observational skills, expressive line work, and direct engagement with the subject—foundations essential to developing strong, confident artists.

Greg, a practitioner with 25 years of experience in the arts, remains as passionate as ever about the discipline of freehand drawing and is dedicated to passing on these skills to the next generation of artists.

More Than an Art Class

At Lavender Art Studios, students become part of a progressive, professional art-learning environment where skills, confidence and creativity are developed over time. Our highly experienced teaching team provides demonstrations, individual guidance and ongoing support throughout each class, with multiple members of our studio team working within the art workshop environment. This allows students to receive assistance as they need it while also developing the confidence and independence to create their own artwork.

 

A Place to Grow as an Artist

Established in 1999, Lavender Art Studios offers a dedicated studio environment where children, young people and adults can continue developing their art practice over many years. Students are introduced to an extensive range of traditional and contemporary media and are encouraged to build skills as they progress. From our youngest Little Lavenders through to teenage specialised workshops and adult art classes, our focus remains on quality teaching, individual artistic development and the enjoyment of creating art.

Lavender Art Studios Opens Possibilities

Whether creating art for enjoyment, personal development or a future creative profession, learning art at Lavender Art Studios opens artistic possibilities towards building artistic skills, confidence, creativity and a lifelong appreciation of the visual arts. Many of our students have gone on to undertake tertiary studies in the arts, pursue creative professions, exhibit their work, and receive awards and recognition for their artistic achievement.

Lavender Art Studios acknowledges First Australians and recognises their continuous connection to country, community and culture. We acknowledge the Ngunnawal and Ngambri People as the Traditional Owners of the land we live and work on.
