About this course

Drawing 'plein air' in our sketch books, in the wonderful rural landscape surrounding the studio, we will experiment with charcoal, and ink and wash paintings gaining confidence in our individual styles. With encouragement you will gain techniques to facilitate enjoying drawing outside independently

We will learn how to really look, how to see things in relation to another. We will draw overviews with emphasis on good composition avoiding too much detail. Using a minimal, portable kit we will see how beautiful drawings can be made with very limited materials and how drawing directly from life, rather than from photographs allows us to chose our own unique focus.

Hot vegetarian lunch included.Tea, coffee,biscuits, available throughout.

If weather poor we will adjourn inside and continue to draw through the huge picture windows.

Is car parking available at the Studios?

Car parking is easy at Mole Studios , the studio door is a few yards from the car park .

Please note that the landscaping is not finished and that there is a step up from ground level into the studio.

Who are the classes for?

The studio is a space for anyone: beginners who want to loosen up or more experienced artists who wish to bring greater energy and immediacy to their work. My classes are designed to gently reconnect with the joy of making art without pressure or judgment.

Here, art isn’t about being ‘good’ it’s about expression, confidence and finding your own unique way of seeing the world.
