Where to draw
Here is a collection of the life drawing events in the greater London area. This list was originally created by Roger (@rogerbdrawing). Thanks Rogger, this is really useful. Everyone's welcome to contribute. Add a new life drawing venue.
Draw at home
These models offer professional photographic references for purchase, and some host live online drawing sessions.
Attend in person
