Friday life drawing session with Plymouth artist Ralph Nel, for adults only, at The Box.
Ralph Nel is running life drawing at The Box on Friday 13 November, one of the selected Fridays he's teaching between 26 June and 18 December 2026. It's a midday session, running from 12:30 to 14:30, so it's more of a lunchtime thing than an evening one.
Nel is a Plymouth-based artist and drawing teacher with over ten years of experience, and he specialises in historical drawing methods and a range of techniques. He runs these sessions from the belief that anyone can draw: there's no such thing as a 'good' drawing, only a good chance to learn something new or to expand on a skill. It's a welcoming way to get into it, whether you've never picked up a pencil or you've been drawing for years.
Each class opens with warm-up exercises to get you loose, followed by an open-ended drawing session that adapts to each participant. Nel also works one-to-one, coming around with personalised tips as you go, so you're not just left to your own devices. The sessions are for adults only, and they start promptly at 12:30pm — latecomers aren't admitted, so it's worth arriving a few minutes early to get settled.
