Life is a bed of roses (just watch out for the thorns!)

Appreciate nature whilst documenting or drawing inspiration from her form. We’ll start with measured drawing and lessons on tone. We’re not expecting perfection but we will help you find your route in: whether widely expressive or insanely perfect. We’re here to get you started.

In this 2 day course we’ll cover the formal basics of drawing as well as showcasing alternative approaches to botanical drawings. Individuals will be encouraged to develop their own individual approach and to trial different mediums including inks, coloured pencil and pastels.

Students will be coached according to their current level. We accept different styles of work and different levels of ability – our coaches will help draw out individual styles and will be on hand to support development.

Participation on this workshop should no doubt result in some beautiful or quirky drawings good enough to frame or as a body of work for a portfolio.
