Urban Sketching: Let’s Get Some New Ideas

Event Information

Join urban sketcher Elwyn Edwards for a dose of inspiration and new ideas here at the gallery. What will we be doing? First, we’ll visit some of the artworks on display to look at how artists such as Graham Sutherland, Eric Ravilious and David Bomberg have used colour, perspective and mark making in different ways. Then we’ll return to the comfort of the gallery studio to apply some of these techniques to our own sketching, saving outdoors for when it gets warmer!

There will be short break for lunch. You’re welcome to bring something with you or to pop out.

This dynamic workshop will give sketchers the chance to experiment with new ideas and develop the impact and individuality of our drawings. We will be using pens, watercolour and collage and working from reference photos. All materials are provided and all levels of experience are welcome.
