SP = Smart Points
The Edinburgh Drawing School Watercolour Set
SP = Smart Points
The school first grew out of a concern that many of the art schools in Scotland were seeing their traditional skill base decline, with the reduction or even removal of drawing, particularly life-drawing, from the curriculum of fine art courses.
Knowing how many people, from art students and experienced artists to the art buying public, lamented this fact, it was clear there was a need for a return to the classical model of drawing, where time is taken to teach skills in media, technique, proportion and composition, so the school was founded to offer this to students of all ages and abilities.
