Lucy McGeown - Still Life Flowers and Abstraction

Limited walk-in spaces available 

Welcome to "Still Life: Flowers and Abstraction" – a dynamic drawing class presented at the Wilderness festival by the London Drawing Group. In this engaging session, we will explore the timeless genre of still life, focusing on the beauty of flowers and the expressive potential of abstraction. By blending traditional techniques with modern approaches, this class offers a unique opportunity to reimagine floral still lifes through an abstract lens. Guided by our expert instructors, you will learn to capture the essence of flowers using a variety of drawing techniques.

London Drawing Group is an art and teaching collective founded in 2016 by Luisa-Maria MacCormack, Lucy McGeown and Frances Stanfield. We met whilst studying at the Royal Drawing School in 2014, and now run a program of diverse, unique classes all over London and online, collaborating with major institutions and attracting thousands of students as well as running regular exhibitions and maintaining our own studio practice. We are now joined by our very good friend and amazing tutor and life-model, Lily Holder!

The core ethos of LDG came from a wish to make art accessible to everyone, our classes aim to cut through the often alienating way that art is talked about and practiced, and to show that everyone is capable of engaging with and enjoying art through discussion and through drawing.
