Saturday 28th June 2025 | 10:30 to 15:30 | Nower Wood Educational Reserve, KT22 8QA

Join us at Nower Wood and connect to the spirit of the trees onsite with artist-teacher / founder of Surrey Art School Ellie Green. We'll begin the day with a gentle walk around the Ancient Woodland - learning how to identify some of the trees onsite, with Ellie sharing their stories, folklore and magic. We'll then settle under the canopy where you'll learn some simple techniques for recording the 'essence of the tree' with quick, guided warm up exercises followed by some in depth studies using a range of drawing materials (graphite, liquid pencil, chalk / charcoal, pastels and ink). 

After a pause for lunch you'll be invited to choose your own tree to study in more depth and, with guided tutor support, you'll create an in depth study using mixed media materials of your choice. At the end of the afternoon we'll gather together and create our own exhibition of our tree studies, reviewing our work and celebrating our creations. 

Wednesday 16th July 2025 | 13:30 to 17:00 | Hannah Peschar Sculpture Garden |

In this summer inspired workshop led by Surrey Art School founder Ellie Green, we'll delve into the textures and colours of the garden in full bloom. Spending a gentle afternoon drawing on the lawn in the heart of the Sculpture Garden, we'll begin by learning some loose sketching techniques in pencil.

We'll then refine our drawings in fine-liner, adding dotting, line and shadow work to bring our outline sketches to life. At the end of the workshop we'll bring vibrancy to our drawings, adding a splash of artist quality watercolours to our designs. Inspired by flora and fauna, you’ll capture the magic of nature in summer.

The afternoon will be broken into two workshops, with a break for tea, locally roasted coffee and scrumptious homemade cakes midway through (dietary options available).
