URBAN SKETCHING
18 APRIL, 10AM-1PM
Join artist Gary Yeung on Saturday 18 April to explore everyday scenes through urban sketching. Starting in our Learning Room, Gary will give you an introduction into the origin of urban sketching, his work, and share some of his techniques for sketching complicated scenes.
You will then have the chance to go out into the town to document your surroundings.
Drawing materials and paper will be available, but feel free to bring your own! See Gary’s suggestions:
– Watercolour sketchbook
– Waterproof fine liners
– Pencils
– Watercolour set
– Brushes
We also have a selection of affordable sketchbooks in our Craft Shop, if you fancy treating yourself to one on the day.
We recommend you bring:
– Bottle of water

You may want to bring a portable stool.
This activities are for adults and young people aged 16+
