Explore the art of line and loose watercolour wash, perfect for sketchbooks and drawing illustrations. Follow Catherine’s demos to create an ink drawing of an ancient packhorse bridge from her own image of the Lake District – from pencil plan to penned details. Then blend watercolour and watermarks on top to create shadow and depth.
The workshop ends with a review and tips to take home. All welcome.
