Drawing Stones with Karen Howse

Do you have stones you have picked up on your travels?

Join Artist-wanderer Karen Howse for a gentle morning of drawing in dialogue with stones. The miniature worlds of stones and rocks are wonderful to explore and spend time with!

In this workshop Karen invites you to bring a pebble or rock small enough to rest in your palm. With simple drawing prompts, we will follow its lines, surfaces and textures, letting pencil and paper trace what words cannot. This is about enjoying the experience of drawing and making marks on the paper, it’s not about perfection but about connection.

• Bring along a pebble or rock that fits in your palm

• We will be exploring our relationship to these stones through gentle drawing prompts

• A drawing experience

• A way of knowing

• An exploration of stone, and drawing together
