Join artist Julie Galante for this in-person workshop, where we’ll take inspiration from the historic city of Edinburgh. Participants of all experience levels are welcome for this friendly, small-group experience.
We’ll start with some guided warm-up sketches before moving on to drawing exercises focused on composition, tone, and observation. By the end of the workshop you’ll feel more confident drawing your surroundings, no matter your previous drawing experience.
Please come dressed for the weather, ready to spend two hours outside. You may also want to bring along a folding stool or a rug to sit on while you draw (there will likely be benches available, but this is unpredictable).
Participants will also need to bring along some basic art supplies:
A sketchbook and/or some drawing paper and board (A4 or larger recommended)
Various drawing pens and pencils
Charcoal or graphite sticks
An eraser
Any other favourite art supplies that you may like to use
I'll also have some supplies to hand for you to borrow or purchase (please let me know in advance if there's something in particular you need).
22 July 2024: Princes Street Gardens
9 August 2024: St Bernard's Well and the Water of Leith
Information about our precise meeting point will be circulated before the workshop.
This workshop can take place in various locations around the city. If you have a request for a location for a future date, please get in touch.
