Event Details

Love in lockdown can be tricky – but this Valentine’s Day, Wild Life Drawing is teaming up with Battersea Dogs & Cats Home to offer a virtual date with a difference. Together we'll be running a special life drawing class over Zoom featuring some of Battersea's beautiful rescue dogs as models on the 14th February.

Artist Jennie Webber will host the Zoom class from her studio, while Battersea spokesperson, Rebecca Lodder, will talk about the dogs and the valuable work the charity has been doing for dogs and cats across the UK and beyond during the coronavirus pandemic.

The class will begin with an an introduction from Jennie, who will take you through the basics of drawing dogs from life, focussing on their muscle structure and anatomy. There will be a drawing demonstration of the shapes, proportions and anatomical features to identify before participants will have chance to meet and draw some of Battersea’s dogs, and Jennie will be on hand to demo, feedback or dish out creative advice throughout the whole session.

Rebecca Lodder, Rehoming and Welfare Manager said: “Valentine’s Day is all about love and we know the love of our rescue pets has rescued many of us over the past year. Whether you’re looking for a lockdown date with a difference with your Valentine, need a fun activity to entertain the kids or just looking for something fun to do with friends, by taking part in this life drawing class, you can help support rescue dogs and cats and show them a little love in these uncertain times.”

The basic materials you need to take part are paper, a pencil, eraser and sharpener, but of course you are more than welcome to work in whatever materials you enjoy or have to hand. Please get in touch if you need advice on materials, we're happy to help! You will be emailed instructions and the Zoom link to join 48 hours before the event is due to start. If you have not received your email 24 hours before the class, or within a few hours of booking your ticket, please check your junk mail or get in touch with Jennie on info@wildlifedrawing.co.uk

50% of each ticket sold will be donated to Battersea.

What is the Handling Charge for?

To ensure tickets are delivered safely and securely and to keep the price as low as possible for you, the ticket buyer, Wild Life Drawing generally uses our E-ticket system unless otherwise stated.

For this service we charge a small Handling Fee to cover the debit/credit card processing fees, customer services, processing and distribution of tickets and our secure server costs. We always try to keep these costs to an absolute minimum. If you feel at any time that our prices are not fair or competitive we'd be happy to hear from you.

Delivery

If you have ordered physical paper tickets there is a further Delivery cost added to cover the delivery of your order through the Royal Mail network.

We always endeavour to keep these costs as low as possible to merely cover the costs of postage. We only charge you one Delivery cost per order so if there is a big group of you recommend purchasing larger amounts in one order.

When you purchase tickets through Wild Life Drawing, the full face value of the ticket is shown. This price is the price set by the event organiser and we pay this full amount to the organiser without any deductions.
