This plein air painting and sketching workshop will help you to develop the skills and confidence to draw and paint outdoors. You will learn to observe the world around you and capture an essence of what is in front of you, learning what to include and what is best left out!With Anne's friendly and supportive guidance, you will produce your own observational work to take home with you, from sketches and painting made on site here at the fascinating and atmospheric site of the old iron ore mine. The workshop is suitable for basic or intermediate skill levels - anyone wanting to develop their outdoor painting and drawing skills is encouraged to attend.
Your ticket price includes all materials and coffee and traybakes on arrival. The workshop is based outdoors and in our Garden Studio, which opens onto our beautiful wildlife garden. Take time after the workshop to relax and explore the arts centre and wildlife garden, learn about the Florence Mine site and enjoy our Fair-trade coffee and teas.

To limit the isolation of studio painting, Anne can often be found outdoors painting and sketching ‘en plein air’, where she enjoys the immersive experience and vivid results. You can see her work at www.annebh-art.com
