There is something very relaxing and peaceful about sitting quietly in the garden. It’s thought that gardens are where man and nature meet. During this workshop we will begin by creating a series of studies that help you to focus on the line and shape of nature and form. Then choose your favourite part of Nature in Art garden to create a more in-depth study using your choice of medium.
This workshop is a fabulous opportunity to try out a new medium or revisit one of your favourites.
Bookable after 4th May.
