Talk and Draw: Frans Hals Portrait of a woman image
Synopsis:

Our regular creative sessions consider a National Gallery painting in two ways
 
Lecturer Belle Smith and artist Emily Motto explore Frans Hals’ ‘Portrait of a Woman (Marie Larp?)’, as featured in ‘The Credit Suisse Exhibition: Frans Hals’.
First, listen to a brief talk, then respond by making your own work in this short, artist-led drawing session. Please have to hand a sharp pencil, paper and a rubber. 
The session will take place online and will last about 1 hour. 
Sometimes we might suggest using different drawing or craft materials, so, if you are able to, please keep a pencil case of different colours, a ruler and a pair of scissors nearby, as well as anything else you might like to experiment with.
