Join us for a sketching workshop
Louise Garrett is a keen Urban Sketcher who enjoys sharing the deeply satisfying activity of drawing on location, indoors or out, capturing what we see from direct observation.
Participants will be introduced to the small portable (A6) sketchbook as a way to encourage a regular sketching habit. We will learn how to draw standing up, and practice sketching and layout designs to create fast drawings ‘on the go’. Louise will share her sketchbooks, and through demonstrations and activities in and around the museum and grounds, we will become comfortable with tools and techniques to practice urban sketching anytime, anywhere!
