Each Tuesday, Dylan Sara hosts a speed sketching portrait session with time limits ranging from 30 seconds to 6 minutes. It’s a two-hour session with a short break in the midway point.

Each week Dylan chooses a theme to inspire the poses, and the artists take it in turns to pose. This is a lively session with lots of chat, but I usually sit quietly and focus on the sketching.
