What better way to explore your town through drawing and sketching! Green Man Gallery Resident Artist Geoff Chilton leads this afternoon workshop on urban sketching, introducing the concept of observing and recording the local area. The workshop is divided into three parts. First, Geoff goes through some of the equipment that might be useful and the basics of sketching outdoors, followed by the best way to approach the drawing of buildings and the urban landscape. The second part is an excursion outside to draw the town in situ.
Afterwards, back at the gallery, there will be a chance to show your work (if you want to), discuss some of the challenges of working outdoors and review the aspects of sketching.
The workshop is limited to 15 places. You’ll need to bring pencil or pens and a sketchpad with you. They don’t need to be anything fancy (a ball-point pen or a pencil and an inexpensive drawing pad are fine). As you’ll be going outside, best to dress for the weather!
Saturday 23rd November from 12pm to 3.30pm.
Cost £50.
