Absorbing a Summer sky: a day of large scale drawing practices

Returning to this wonderful space in the heart of Worcester which has indoor and outdoor making space.

“You are the sky. Everything else – it’s just the weather.”
― Pema Chödrön

The workshop is for creatives at all levels of education and interest. A stimulating opportunity to explore scale and associated movement. We work through a series of sense based warm up activities that nourish intuitive, wonderfilled responses to our subject - the summer sky.

The workshop is split into two sections with an hour for lunch / reflection in the middle. The first half involves warm up activities and a collaborative drawing session. The second involves time to draw alone and/or in relation to others.

We use chalks / water / dried paints and various mark making tools, string and tape.

These workshops are stimulating and offer time to engage with process and journeying, reflect on your own creative work and have an opportunity to make and move on a large scale.

Is Poetry, though never in a Book it lie –
True Poems flee' Emily Dickinson c.1879
