Our virtual online art classes are aimed at helping you find fun things to do at home which might open up a new hobby for you to continue into the future. Hobbies have become really popular recently because they help significantly improve your mental health. As we’ve all had a challenging year, our mental health is more important than ever. Hobbies tend to make you feel much happier and will bring out your creative side which will give you more energy and feel much calmer. More importantly, starting a hobby will help you regain your identity which is something that is often lost the older you get. By doing things you love, you’ll feel much more like you again. 

The beauty of trying online art classes is you can do them from anywhere in the United Kingdom. This means you won’t need to think about having to get anywhere, and if you don’t live close to a city, you can easily just log on and join our virtual classes easily. 

If you’re wondering how virtual drawing classes can make you feel happier, here are our reasons why you need to try live online drawing classes this winter. 

Live online drawing classes are great for meditation

 If you need a break from the day to day stresses, joining a live online drawing class is the perfect way to unwind. It will not only help you relax, but you’ll also be able to switch off and spend quality time doing something you love. 

With the focus that’s needed with learning to draw classes, you’ll find it so relaxing, it’s a great meditative hobby. If you tend to struggle with being able to meditate, learning to draw can help you meditate without even realising. You won’t need to block out your thoughts as it will just happen naturally as you concentrate on being in the present whilst drawing. 

Live online drawing classes improve confidence and self-esteem 

Joining an art class can be pretty daunting, especially if you’re not used to getting out of your comfort zone. We know it can be difficult to choose which online art class to start with, as well as working out the logistics of getting to the workshop. You’ll be in a new space with unfamiliar faces which can be an experience which might put some people off. Rather than not join an art class nearby, you can now enjoy doing a live-streaming art class from the comfort of your own home. This will give you a chance to be able to really enjoy and get stuck into a live drawing class, rather than worry about the things which don’t really matter. 

As you learn to concentrate on improving your drawing skills, your confidence will grow and it will improve your self-esteem. Creating art releases dopamine which is ultimately what makes you happy. The more you learn to draw, the happier you’ll be. 

Taking part in our live online drawing classes are a fantastic way to kick start your hobby in your own time. And when you’re ready, you can then join our live drawing classes in person where you’ll be able to meet like-minded people and even create new long-lasting friendships. Building friendships is a really important part of life to share life’s enjoyments and problems, to have friends you can depend on for support is something everyone needs. When you have like-minded friends, it will be much easier to relate to each other and provide guidance and support when needed. 

You’ll improve your memory and analytical skills

When attending an online drawing course, you’ll be at a lower risk of developing memory-related illnesses and you’ll improve your analytical skills.  The process of drawing involves making decisions about drawing perspective and using the paper as efficiently as possible. You’ll be making decisions and using your problem-solving skills at every step of your drawing journey. 

Our live online drawing classes are designed for everyone. It doesn’t matter if you’ve not drawn anything before or whether you simply want to improve your drawing skills. 

If you’re wondering how our virtual drawing workshops work, once you’ve picked which drawing class you want to take part in, we’ll then do the rest. We’ll package up a beautiful craft box lovingly made from our British makers and teachers, which will include a DIY drawing kit, and delivered straight to your front door. You’ll then have plenty of time to create your own little homemade art studio before the class starts. 

All you’ll need to do is simply log onto Zoom where you’ll find other like-minded students and our local British expert teacher waiting to teach you everything you need to know about learning to draw online. The art teacher will make sure the class is as fun and engaging as it would be if you were to attend in person.
