Join artist Keith Rogers for an informal couple of hours, simply drawing flowers with a biro.

We will see how working “out of the white” and focusing on negative shapes and incomplete lines, will slowly build your mark making into beautiful delicate drawings with depth and energy.

It is a process full of surprises and magic and is a blissful way to spend an evening.

You can see examples of Keith’s sketchbook biro drawings, as part of his exhibition Beyond the Golden Reeds in the Forest Arts Gallery from 8 January - 16 February.

Keith is also doing an informal FREE Meet the Artist on Thursday 20 January, more info and booking available here.
