For 2011, my regular Springtime Sketchbook workshop has become more of a late summer sketchbook! The venue will be the picturesque village of Ringstead, just inland of the West Norfolk coast. Based in the village hall in the centre of the village, and using pencil, pen and the popular medium of pen and wash, this weekend workshop will focus on capturing the essence of the landscape simply but effectively. No previous experience of pen and wash is required, and the course is suitable for artists of all abilities.
Weather permitting, there will be outdoor sessions when we will work directly from the landscape itself. The intention is to work in and around the village of Ringstead on the Saturday, and at either Thornham or Brancaster on the coast on the Sunday. These are both delightful spots and is just a few minutes by car from Ringstead. Should the weather be unkind, the village hall is warm and well lit, and we can work there using my photographs and sketches as reference.
