We have been featured in the Get It! (article on GoogleDrive) and The Lowvelder (https://lowvelder.co.za/789295/hone-your-drawing-skills-with-lowveld-figure-drawing/)
We have held sessions in the greenhouse at The Plantsman, themed sessions with a yoga instructor and one with a ballerina. And we have also held an exhibition of our member’s works which coincided with the Clay and Coffee Night Market last year.
Our mission:
To create a safe and inclusive communal space for all artists in the Lowveld from all disciplines and of all skill levels to come together and unite in our love and enjoyment of figure drawing. A respectful, courteous and friendly space that will allow for connections, collaborations and the establishment of a strong artistic community in the Lowveld. Lowveld Figure Drawing was founded by Casandra Jacobs and Xenia Roos, and is hosted by Casandra Jacobs in the Lowveld. We host figure drawing sessions, workshops, and sketchbook meet-ups.
