10.30am - 3.30pm Join us for a drawing day inspired by 'John Bellany: A Life in Self-Portraiture'. Inspired by the self-portraiture and sketchbooks of John Bellany we will explore how to use small scale images to explore aspects of our own image and emotions. Like diary entries sketchbooks record our moods and hold powerful messages in small dimensions and are fascinating and direct stores of images for future larger scale work. Led by artist Tessa Asquith-Lamb, a great user of sketchbooks, we will explore mark-making and different materials including ink, pencil, watercolour and collage. Please bring a small mirror and/or portrait photos of your own head along to the class.
