Evening Classes at Yorkshire Dance.
Roller Dance is a type of roller skating that has been around for decades. Community Roller Dance Sessions are a friendly, no-pressure space to learn the art of roller dance together. We cater for beginners and more advanced skaters. You must be able to stand still on skates, go forward and stop safely. We will learn basic steps from Downtown, Zero, Strut Walk, to learning routines as a group.
In this workshop you will look at yourself or other participants more closely by drawing a (self-)portrait with oil pastels. The aim is to capture the essence of your subject rather than about getting every detail to look right and take inspiration from impressionistic artists like Monet and Renoir.
If you would like some guidance, I am happy to give any tips and pointers.
Oil pastels and paper are provided but feel free to bring your own materials. I will also bring a small mirror for self portraits but you can use photographs for references as well.
