Working directly from the model, each day will consist of two sustained 2.5-hour poses, allowing for in-depth engagement with structure and perception. Students will explore how contours, transitions, and lost-and-found edges define form and create spatial tension. Through both focused and intuitive mark-making, we’ll examine how to shift from outline to perception-based drawing — using edge variation to suggest structure, movement, and atmosphere rather than rigid boundary. The goal is to develop sensitivity to how form emerges through relationships rather than fixed lines. Yuval Yosifov is a contemporary figurative and observational painter, renowned for her figure oil paintings. Based in Tel Aviv, she both practices and teaches art. Her focus lies in mastering the principles of drawing from life, diversity of edges, tones, and harmony of colours. Yuval received training at the "Jerusalem Studio School" under the guidance of Yedidya Hershberg, Deborah Sebaoun, and Israel Hershberg. She has showcased her work internationally, including exhibitions in Europe and the US. Notably, she participated in the Royal Society of British Artists' annual exhibition at the Mall Galleries and secured the second prize at the Hampstead Society, awarded by Michael Harding. Her art has graced venues such as the Figure Ground Gallery in Seattle and the Lyme Academy Exhibition. Recently, she held her inaugural solo exhibition, "Tonal Stories," at the Rothschild Gallery.

If a tutor has to withdraw from teaching the scheduled course for any reason (medical/personal/professional) before the start of a scheduled course, during a scheduled course, if the course is 8 weeks long or scheduled as x3 terms of 8 weeks long each, The Edinburgh Drawing School will find a replacement tutor for the course designed by that tutor for The Edinburgh Drawing School. The course content will be the same as the originally booked course. A student will not be entitled to a refund should the school have no option but to find a replacement tutor. If a tutor leaves and starts work elsewhere, and a student prefers to take classes with them personally at the tutor's new workplace, that is at the discretion of the student and no refund is entitled to them or will be given.

Non-attendance of classes/workshops does not automatically mean a refund, however EDS will assess the circumstance If a tutor cannot teach a class due to illness, the scheduled class will be covered by another tutor or the class will be postponed and rescheduled for the following week at the same time on the same day of the week. Make up classes are scheduled during the half term week, or in the week following the end of term. The Edinburgh Drawing School runs 8 week terms of scheduled classes, 9 weeks if including the half term and then 10 weeks to include a week at the end of term for any necessary make up classes.
