 Day 2

Taking the Next Step - Editing & Composition

This two-day workshop is a celebration of the sketchbook. You will be in a playful, relaxed environment where you will be encouraged to discover, explore, and develop without the pressure of outcomes, find your flow and nurture your own creative language. The workshop is designed to encourage a regular, attainable practice beyond this experience. It's about starting conversations, taking visual notes, and becoming a vessel for inspirationrtance of creativity, and this workshop is designed to encourage a regular, attainable practice.

DAY 1: Start with a playful arrangement of objects and textures. Using drawing and looking to find shape, line, and repeated patterns that inspire us, exploring a range of media, including watercolour paints, coloured pencils and ink.

DAY 2: Assemble experiments and observations to create mini sketchbooks. Use these assemblages to refine our initial creations and create small 'works in process' on artist-quality watercolour paper.
