DRAW FOR YOU
WITH MANDY THOMSON
Drawing for Beginners
Sunday 27th April 2025
10am - 1pm
£50
This three hour workshop is designed for people who don't think they can draw. It is for anyone who would like to engage with creativity in a gentle, supportive and unintimidating way. During the three hours, we will learn about art materials, explore mark making, tone, shading, texture and form, using pencil and charcoal on paper. We will carry out a range of different techniques, approaches and exercises. We will draw from life using various objects, and learn how to really look at and translate an object. We will explore finding our own creative language and discover what we enjoy.
Through demonstrations and guidance, I will provide feedback to help you achieve the most from the workshop.
All starter materials are provided for you to take home and continue with your practice. There is also an opportunity to work towards a finished drawing which can be mounted, wrapped and taken home. There is no need to bring anything with you, however, I would encourage you to bring along any objects or references you would particularly like to draw.
