Estelle Robinson: coloured pencil and pastel on drafting film At The Memorial Hall Art Studio, Hathaway Lane, Shottery, CV37 9BL Saturday 15th February 10am-4pm

We are very pleased to be able to offer another workshop this year with Estelle Robinson who specialises in pastel, coloured pencil and graphite. The workshop will focus on a marine theme.

We will be working with coloured pencils and pastels on drafting film, a smooth opaque support which is perfect for creating perspective with great effect. We will use the pencils to layer up a sharp, detailed foreground whilst by contrast, pastel sticks afford a quick and atmospheric watery background.

All materials will be supplied but if members prefer to use their own pastels that is fine. Estelle recommends members bring a notebook as there will be a lot of information given on the day.

The workshop will be held at Shottery Memorial Hall Studio, CV37 9BL, and last from 10am until 4pm. Refreshments will be provided but please bring your own lunch and mug.
