Life Drawing Class and Wine

Unwind with a glass of wine and an evening of drawing in a cosy London wine bar.



2 hours Location London Class size 1 to 25 guests   £30

Join us for a two-hour life drawing class in London on an early Sunday evening at Tilly's, a lovely new wine bar in Shepherd's Bush. Settle into a candlelit atmosphere, enjoy a complimentary glass of wine and spend the evening drawing, experimenting and meeting lovely people.
Whether you're an experienced artist who has attended many life drawing classes or picking up a pencil for the very first time, everyone is welcome!
What to expect:
  • Hosted by local artist Viktoriya, the session will be semi-guided, giving you the freedom to experiment.
  • Viktoriya will suggest techniques, offer support throughout the session and help you develop your own unique drawings.
  • We'll have a live model posing throughout the two hours, wearing artistic drapery, with a variety of poses lasting between 5 and 30 minutes.
  • Alongside figure drawing, there will also be a still life arrangement to explore.
The bar itself is full of interesting objects, paintings and little details, so you'll be encouraged to look around and find inspiration in your surroundings. We'll be drawing in a relaxed, social bar setting.
After the session, you're very welcome to stay for another glass of wine or a cocktail and enjoy the atmosphere of this lovely new London venue. Come on your own, bring a friend or make it a creative date. I'm looking forward to drawing with you!

FAQ

Q: Why are there no reviews for this workshop?
This is a special one-off event organised in collaboration between local artist Viktoriya and Tilly's wine bar. Viktoriya is an experienced artist who has hosted numerous public and private watercolour workshops across London. This will be her first life drawing event, inspired by the six months she spent attending life drawing classes in Bologna, Italy. She is excited to bring a little of that creative, relaxed atmosphere to a lovely wine bar in West London. We're looking forward to making this a special evening, and we'd love you to be part of it. Don't miss this one-of-a-kind opportunity!

I’ve been an artist and art educator for nearly five years now, but in many ways, the seed was planted much earlier. My real love affair with painting -and especially watercolour - began when I realised how intuitive and freeing it felt once I move to London as a teenager. Away from my home, Art offered a way to connect with myself and the people around me.
The spark to start teaching came during my A-level studies, when I began running small workshops for friends and teaching at a local after school art class for children. What started as casual gatherings turned into a deeper passion: I found real joy in guiding others to uncover their creativity, especially those who didn’t think of themselves as "artistic." Seeing someone’s confidence bloom through making, watching their face light up when something they've painted surprises them, is endlessly rewarding.
Since then, I’ve had the pleasure of teaching students of all ages, both in schools and privately, and I now offer watercolour sessions for birthdays, team building, and creative evenings among friends. I bring all the materials and tailor each session to the group’s vibe, whether it’s relaxed and playful or more focused and meditative. We can meet anywhere that’s meaningful to the group - at home, in a hired space, even outdoors in good weather.
Beyond teaching, my own art practice explores themes of identity, the body, and storytelling. I’ve exhibited my work and contributed to collaborative art projects that combine research, visual storytelling, and environmental awareness. I'm currently finishing my degree in Fine Art Painting at The University of Arts London, where I’ve been deepening my practice both technically and conceptually.
Something people often don’t realise is how accessible and healing art-making can be. You don’t need to be “good at art” to enjoy it, you just need to be open to the process. That’s the atmosphere I try to create in every session: welcoming, playful, and pressure-free.
If you're looking for an inspiring, meaningful experience to share with your friends, family, or colleagues, I’d love to guide you through it.
