Gladdy Drawing Club - Life drawing with Total Bore and Noni Cragg

Gladdy Drawing Club will steal your heart! (right through the ARTery...) Great atmosphere to learn, get creative, or just have a few drinks while you're drawing a blank after work :DWarning: it's addictive.

GDC (online and irl) feels and looks like the ideal family dinner! We all turn up weekly so the hosts Noni and Bligh can serve us up an amazing art/life experience, while the models set the table, the way they want it, with their obvious skill and professionalism. Meanwhile, we the artists (from absolute beginners through) can be seated comfortably alongside non judgemental family, friends and community to learn new drawing techniques, explore current art practices, enjoy great music and feast on the beauty and the diversity of the human form. This is a safe space, please feel welcome to join us.

Not good at it didn’t stop me having fun there! Super friendly crowd, had a great time! Would 100% recommend.

I do the online classes from home each week. The models are professional and creative. The format of the class is excellent with short and longer poses. I really like the timer for each pose. The hosts play amazing, creative background music which I love. The hosts are respectful and help you really explore your creative skills. All from my own home. Fav night of the week. Highly recommend!

Best life drawing classes, online and in-person! Bligh has built the most welcoming and safe life drawing community. Constantly upping the game with the most diverse cast of models. Continual stream of major guest artists coming in-person to draw and interview. Bligh will also bring you nice cold beers from the pub downstairs.

Safe, relaxed, fun life drawing experience. Super supportive arts community, some who loves to have a drink afterwards, excellent hosts are encouraging and never judgmental, and the models are always fantastic and change from week to week.10 outta 10 would recommend!

Hands down the best life drawing class in Sydney- maybe even the world! Bligh and Noni are warm, fun, inclusive hosts, making everyone of any level feel welcome. They’ve built an amazing creative community with so many insane models, guests and artists turn up, it’s the coolest night in town!

Gladdy Drawing Club is a wonderful life drawing club that’s become the home to a thriving community. I’ve been coming nearly every week for over a year now. Everyone from beginners to professional artists seem to have a blast in this welcoming, inspiring and delightfully weird environment. The facilitators (Bligh and Noni) and the diverse roster of models are top notch.
