Sat 6th June - 10am-12pm

This 2-hour workshop is aimed at beginners looking to dig out their unused sketchbooks and start filling them up! With a variety of exercises to challenge and expand your current skills to elevate your sketching abilities. We will focus on ways to improve composition, proportions, shading and mark-making to loosen up your style, while improving the quality. This is all about removing the worry and allowing yourself the freedom to get sketching.

This workshop will be a pressure-free space to play, create, and enjoy the moment with no right or wrong.

Feel free to bring your own pristine or well-loved sketchbook. If you don’t have any materials, don’t worry, they will all be provided, although I’m hoping you’ll be inspired to go and get your own sketchbook by the end.

This 2-hour workshop is for complete beginners to painting, those wanting to refresh or try a new media.

We will try different acrylic paints on a variety of surfaces, learning how the paint behaves. We will try different mediums to mix with the acrylics, alongside other practical tips, to get you confident with the basics around acrylic paints.

We will finish by painting your own small canvas, putting all the theory into practice on your own masterpiece! The aim is all about getting you confident in a new medium and giving you all the information you need to get started on your own.
