Do you enjoy drawing but feel overwhelmed when faced with a blank page? Illustrator Emily Harper will share techniques learned over 16 years in design and animation to help you to overcome the creative block and put the fun back into drawing.
You will learn how to create your own mini sketchbook to use during a day of creative drawing, gaining skills you can apply to countless projects at home. Try exercises and surrealist games that engage the imagination, improve drawing confidence and show you how to use your sketchbook as a tool for wellbeing as well as artistic development.
You may be inspired to progress to zine making, sketchbooking projects, or exploring illustration as a tool to find your unique style as an artist.
Materials will be provided but feel free to bring along any artistic materials you enjoy working with, as well as collage materials or anything that inspires you.
This is a one day course taking place on Thursday 6 June 2024, 10:00am - 4:00pm.
