Charcoal Portraits- Learn to draw peoples faces in charcoal

Charcoal Portrait Drawing Class Series

Join me for an inspiring and relaxed charcoal portrait series in Cambridge! Over the course of these step-by-step classes, we will learn how to draw portraits together, breaking down the process into simple and manageable stages.

Each week, we’ll work from a different reference picture, starting with large shapes before gradually adding detail to create expressive, lifelike portraits. Whether you’re a beginner or more experienced, this series is designed to make portrait drawing feel approachable and enjoyable.

Following the success of our wildlife portrait classes earlier this year, I’ve created this new series in response to your requests for more charcoal sessions—this time focusing on human portraits. I’ll guide you through techniques for shading, sketching, creating texture, and drawing realistic hair. I’ve carefully chosen diverse and interesting portraits to keep things engaging.
