Creative Sketchbooks 1 day workshop with Karen George

Sorry- Sold Out

Explore patterns in nature using print & mixed media. Collate your creative journey in a concertina sketchbook.

Suitable for all abilities.

This workshop is a wonderful opportunity to take time out and explore your creativity. Starting with a prompt from nature, you will be taken on a creative journey exploring patterns in nature using a variety of materials and techniques including Gelli plate printing; your work will be collated into a concertina sketchbook.

Perfect for artists looking to loosen up and overcome the fear of a pristine page in a new sketchbook!
