Spend a day using various drawing techniques to capture the beauty of trees in an ancient woodland.

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 or 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). 

I can’t even begin to express how passionate I am about Botanical Mono-printing. It’s been a process that I have been using in my own Art practise and teaching since the dawn of Surrey Art School. Working with vegetable oil based inks and whatever leaves and herbs season at the time, this is an opportunity to create stunning, hand-made prints with exceptional detail that deeply honour the artistry of Mother Nature.
