If you love sketching all year round – but don’t like to get cold and wet – this is for you! I will be offering an indoor sketching club to practice drawing skills and explore materials – in the warm and dry! Please read on and express an interest if this might be for you.
Dedicated venue:
The venue will be a secluded and dedicated area within the historic Kings Head Hotel, in Wimborne Square, BH21 1JG.
I learned last year that not everyone is as keen as I am to go out sketching in all weathers! Which is why I am inviting you to join me indoors for sketching sessions this winter and autumn. To start with, I’d appreciate knowing if you might be interested, and with no obligation, please could you express your interest at this point – I will then add you to my waitiung list and keep you updated on developments and details.
• Two hours, fortnightly on Tuesdays from 17th November to 23rd March, between 11:00am – 13:00pm
• £20 per person per session
• Basic materials such as pencils, pens, paper and some other materials will be available
• Guided sessions will follow a loose curriculum and also be directed by participant needs and desires
• The first hour: Enjoy a coached agenda on specific sketching skills and trialling different media and techniques
• The second hour: SketchJAM freestyle all together on either still life subjects, or outdoors if suitable weather
• Tea, coffee, soft & alcoholic drinks and bar meals readily available to buy from the nearby bar, throughout and/or afterwards
• Opportunity to stay on and socialise briefly afterwards and possibly do lunch or sketch some more!
• All students will benefit from a 10% discount at Overbury’s Fine Art Supplies in Westbourne Arcade, perfect for pro advice on kit
• Free on-site car parking at hotel
• Several bus stops immediately adjacent to hotel
The Kings Head Hotel is a very attractive and substantial county hotel, right on the Square, itself. We will have a dedicated and cosy area within the ground floor bar/cafe/public areas – with beverages and snacks easily obtainable. We will be able to enjoy this area exclusively for our sessions and be free to pop outside to put our skills into practice, if the weather is kind.
Booking:
Spaces will probably be restricted to a maximum of 12 and will be bookable on a weekly basis in my website shop. Places will be offered on a first-come-first-served basis. No need to commit to anything more than one weekly session at a time, but you could also book a batch of session or even the entire autumn & winter series, if you wished!
Express your interest:
By doing this, I will add you to my waiting list, which means you will be offered first crack at bookings before I go live and public. You can always make bookings later, depending upon availability. Having your expression of interest puts me in a position where I have confidence to line up venue hire and commit to making this all happen.
Thank you for reading and hopefully expressing your interest – do so by clicking the button to email me.
