Ways of Drawing brings together a sophisticated, exciting range of reflections on markmaking by practising artists, teachers and writers. From explorations of how it feels to draw and personal accounts of artistic development, to short, imaginative propositions for looking, understanding and experiencing afresh, this collection repositions drawing as a vital creative and intellectual endeavour.

The book is divided into three sections: ‘Studio Space’, which focuses on drawing within four walls; ‘Open Space’, which ventures out into the cityscapes and landscapes around us; and ‘Inner Space’, which returns to the living, feeling, drawing person. Each section is comprehensively illustrated with a wealth of drawings, prints and paintings by faculty and alumni of the Royal Drawing School, works by established artists past and present, and photographs of artists at work.

Julian Bell is a well-known painter and author. His books include Bonnard and What is Painting?, both published by Thames & Hudson. Julia Balchin joined the Royal Drawing School in 2010 and is now Director of Education and Enterprise. Julia has curated exhibitions in London and New York at Christie’s, Blain Southern and Buckingham Palace and has collaborated with the Royal Collection, British Museum and the Courtauld. A curator and art historian, she maintains her own artistic practice as a way of seeing and thinking. She studied Fine Art and History of Art at the University of Leeds, later returning to set up fine art publishers and commercial gallery Paper Scissor Stone. She has lived in Holland, Australia, Mexico and Spain, and now lives and works in London. Claudia Tobin is a Leverhulme Early Career Fellow in Cambridge and curates the ‘Lecture and Conversation’ series at the Royal Drawing School.
