Presented as part of Bristol Artists Book Events #BABE2019 | Make your own abstract drawings while we walk around Arnolfini.
This experimental drawing workshop helps you explore your own visual language through observation and gestural mark making. We will each produce a series of quick line drawings in response to our surroundings at the Arnolfini’s BABE2019 event.
A simple way to approach regular drawing practice, start a sketchbook, journal or artist’s book, or just have a go.
BYO small sketchbook (A5/A6) and pencils – age 14+
