After an introduction to the past and present history of Baffins and a stroll around the pond, John will help the participants to develop their own creative practice. Together, we will explore how to use a range of media (pencils, pens, natural elements) to record and sketch memories and the natural world on paper - all based in a wonderful venue within the heart of Portsmouth.
