Making your mark

About the workshop

An exploration of drawing techniques and ideas.

Join artist John Somerscales for a day drawing, from quick gestural sketches to more considered studies:

We will look at how to draw trees and figures, try mark-making and shading, using pencil, pens, mixed media, pastels and colour.

An equipment list will be sent to you.
