Student Work from the Fall Drawing Workshop

See what the Fall Drawing Workshop created! Below is a selection of drawings from the last class from a variety of exercises. Topics ranged from Negative Space to Tonality, from portrait drawing to still-life, from figure drawing to drawing taxidermy. At the end of the class, we mounted this exhibition and had a reception/ open house.

Welcome to The Drawing Room

The Drawing Room has historically
been a space for sharing ideas
and new discoveries. 
The Berlin Drawing Room is a forum for Studio Workshops offered by artist Mira O'Brien. Here you can find updated class information and content related to the workshops.  Current, past and prospective students are invited to follow this blog and leave their comments! 

Studio Workshops take place primarily in Kreuzberg in Mira's Studio, sometimes traveling to other sites around Berlin. All workshops are taught in English.

The first Studio Workshop was the Summer Drawing Workshop, 2011. After a great response, Mira decided to continue the Drawing Workshop, as well as add several new workshops!

Find descriptions of all classes being offered in the right-hand column!
