25 Sept, 10.00-12.00 - Walk & Draw: How to Draw a Tree and River - Sketching Walk Along the Lym
Join local artist and author Alex Boon for a sketching walk along the River Lym to celebrate his recent books "How to Draw a River" and "How to Draw a Tree", published this summer by David & Charles, Exeter. In this 2-hour walking and drawing session, we will cover some basics of drawing both trees and moving water and gather observations to get you started on your very own nature journal. This class will be beginner-friendly and encouraging for all levels. All materials will be included. Copies of the books will be available for sale after the event.
