Led by Amanda Schenk

Amanda Schenk is the visual artist behind Norden Farm's much-loved (and Instagrammed) glass corridor artwork in the school holidays. Join Amanda for this new drawing course, aimed at helping to create a sense of calm and relaxation through drawing patterns.

Suitable for all abilities, the workshops will focus on building confidence in your drawing abilities - concentrating on the soothing journey of the drawing experience, rather than the finished drawing.

In each session you'll explore how to produce different types of patterns in abstract drawings - looking at different designs each week.

You will need: paper (plain, no smaller than A5), lead pencil, eraser, sharpener, black fine liner or a pen. Optional is a black marker.

Tues 19 Jan - Tues 23 Feb (exc Tues 16 Feb)
11am - 12.15pm (online only)
£8 per class or £28 per 4 week course / £35 per 5 week course
Suitable for ages 18+ years
Booking cut off time: 9am on the day of each session

In the event of us remaining in Tier 4, this class will go ahead as planned online.

The intention of this series of workshops is to encourage a sense of self-discovery by exploring your identity through the art of collage.

We will be doing some simple exercises so that you can consider aspects of yourself that you may like to incorporate within the collage.

Each week we will explore different techniques such as cutting, ripping, mosaic tiles, using old photos and consider how to use block colour and patterns. We will also be working on different features every week. Culminating in an abstracted self-portrait reflecting your true identity.

Participants to provide own materials (please see information sheet for more information).
