Set in the beautiful Lewers Gallery gardens, join artist Clare Delaney to explore drawing in response to nature. Immersed in the shapes, colour, light, smells, sounds and textures of the garden, we will make our own drawing tools from materials collected from the garden, and play, and experiment with naturally made inks, as well as charcoal and graphite, to capture the essence of this amazing garden.

Building on our experiments with natural materials we will work on bringing different marks, shapes and textures together in one finished work. There will be an opportunity to explore how to make avocado ink in the Gallery studio. Participants will also take home their drawing tools, experimental process drawings, and avocado ink.

This program is open to adult participants only. The workshop will take place at the Gallery gardens and in Sonia Farley Studio 1. Please wear appropriate shoes for uneven ground and be sun-smart by wearing long sleeves, sunglasses, a hat, and sunscreen. Please find helpful information to plan your visit here.
