Draw a lion

Together with friends, family or colleagues, you will receive a 1-hour private lesson from an artist-instructor.

You get to work right after a brief introduction. During the lesson, the instructor will give you personal tips and answer any questions you might have. At the end of the lesson you will present your drawing to the group. Your model is a 1650 drawing by a Rembrandt School artist, namely The Reclining Lion.

If you don’t have the materials at home, you can purchase a reed pen, brushes, ink and paper at the nearest art supply store or online.
