About the event

Louise Earnshaw will help participants to develop a wide range of techniques and skills using a variety of art materials to observe nature through art.  The session will explore ways of recording the tiniest details through to scenes and landscapes.  All participants will leave with their own sketchbook and the confidence to doodle and sketch in nature. 

She will outline the Green Sketching Art Movement that is helping to make the incredible benefits of sketching nature accessible to all ages and abilities. These include closer connection to nature, improved observation, focus and mental wellbeing.
There will be some classroom learning with the majority of time spent outside on the reserve.

Weather: Where a workshop is dependent on the weather, we may have to make changes or, on rare occasions due to extreme weather, cancel to ensure the safety of all.
