ABOUT THE WORKSHOP
The workshop will focus on becoming present with nature and using drawing as a meditative tool to really see what is around you. Ideally if you can sit outside in nature (or in your pollytunnel) for inspiration that would be perfect.
Otherwise, create a calm space for yourself and bring in some inspiring pieces of nature that you find during the week such as feathers, stones, branches or flowers. If you are picking something alive, remember to ask permission from the plant or tree before you do so! Have your drawing tools ready (pencils, pens, paper and a board to lean on). Remember to experiment.
We will start with a short grounding exercise and share some tips about drawing with nature. Then you will have time to observe and draw. There will be space at the end to share, only if you wish to do so. Please note that this is a shared, creative experience not a class. You don’t need any particular drawing skills. just and openness to the experience.
