Art Classes Dublin & Ireland

As a result of the growth of artistic endeavours in Ireland, figure drawing models are in demand throughout the year. If you are an artist or studio that organises drawing lessons give us a call and we will supply with your male model muses. Not only that but we can advise on the best Art Classes Dublin has to offer. Our Life drawing models now the industry inside out and will be present to inspire and entertain you.

Art Classes Dublin offers to the world

In Dublin you find anything from formal art classes in Universities and Art studios to informal gathering of amateur painters in bars and hotels all over town.

The Art studios offer formal workshops with a clear outline and a strict schedule. Life drawing models will be taking 4 to 5 short poses of 5 to 10 min and then two to three long poses of 30min. The arts instructor is usually a professional artist that will guide the participants in their efforts. Most art studios offer packages of classes. Some organisers introduce art classes as a way to improve mindfulness and confidence.

Other strictly painting studios such as the The Drawing Studio in Dublin offer comprehensive art classes within a 9 week period.

On the other hand there are other options where a once off Life drawing activity is more of a party with a palette and prosecco. Usually such activities are run from hotels and bars. They work wonders for the likes of Hen Parties, Birthday parties and Ladies’ nights out. As a result in such activities expect the facilitator to be more of host that makes you smile rather than a painter that corrects your lines.

Things to be aware when booking Art Classes 

Assuming that you would like to watch our Life Drawing Models up close and personal, we would like to offers some advice with regard to the type of painter training you could receive through Art Classes in Dublin.  

Profile of Art Studio

You have wide range of options. Some studios are well established institutions that work closely with top painters in Ireland. Indeed for amateurs with natural talent, just drawing a naked man will not be enough. If the studio is endorsed by state bodies, such as the Arts Council of Ireland you are bound to get professional training that will eventually lead you to the doors of Art Colleges.

Length of the course

It really depends on what your goals are. If you have enough spare time to go to such a course at least twice a week, then you need to take a 3 month course to begin with. As your skills improve you will find the art form that suits you best. Then you can invest the time more productively.

Commitment

Is Life drawing just a fun activity you enjoy with your friends or a lifelong commitment? How do you see yourself progress? As a rule of thumb, just think of what other activities give you pleasure. If Life Drawing is the main thing on your agenda, then it is worth joining an Art Studio that will offer the support and skills you need to achieve your goal. If it is just a hobby, you are better suited for local painting groups.

Price

There are a lot of free figure drawing activities that city or county councils organise regularly. Local libraries, art groups and colleges have introductory courses for those that just want to test the water. At the same time professional painters need also to make a living so don’t get surprised to find out  that Drawing classes can be a bit pricey. With monthly fees ranging at €100 mark, they are still cheaper than your Netflix and Satellite subscription combined.
