Goodliz Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Hello, my year 7 son gets really stressed over drawing pictures. This is getting to be a bit of a problem as now he is in year 7 he often has to draw for parts of his homework. He won't let me help him as gets himself into a right state as he just finds drawing really difficult. I am not very good at art and I try and get him to try stuff on you tube with me or follow simple methods but he just won't have it. Does anyone know of any art classes locally that help children with drawing please? Not ones for toddlers or really little kids though. Thanks, liz Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/92775-art-classes-for-older-children/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
lorraineliyanage Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Sheena Dempsey runs some great illustration classes locally. I'm not sure when the next one is but they are aimed at older children. http://www.sheenadempsey.com/courses/ Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/92775-art-classes-for-older-children/#findComment-956950 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dun Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Stephanie of Chaos Art CLub is brilliant. Has classes after school in East Dulwich. My child went for 4 years and loved her classes. www.chaosartclub.co.uk [email protected] Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/92775-art-classes-for-older-children/#findComment-957824 Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickysydenham Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 It may not be what you want, but one avenue is the website diy.org - an American site running a virtual scouts type thing for 6-14 year olds, where kids earn badges or 'patches'. But they also do online courses for kids lasting 1 month, costing from $15 a month. The courses include illustration, cartoon drawing and other drawing subjects.
